In this news this week was a story about the local Airporter bus company moving to a new base in Derry.
They bus 150,000 people from Derry to Belfast every year to fly from the 2 x Belfast airports.
I was amazed it was so much. And think of how many go via their own car.
Sticking with the Airporter of course every route that they are going to Belfast to fly from would not be viable with Derry passengers alone but 150,000 is still a big number and surely a good amount of them could fly from Derry on the major routes if timings and prices where right.
