Airport masterplan 20m pax.
Is there space in the airport boundary to extend the runway length and add a starter strip? Surely this will assist in marketing the airport to the likes or Emirates or Etihad?
I could see BRS targeting the following carriers in the years to come:
FINNAIR Helsinki & connections
TURKISH AIRLINES Istanbul & connections
SWISS Zurich & connections
WOW Iceland & connections
ETIHAD Abu Dhabi & connections
EMIRATES Dubai & connections (subject to runway extension/starter-strip)
Will bmi regional still be around in 10-20 years time? What aircraft will they replace their ERJ-145's with?
