It’s an expensive business running an airport...A 10 year time frame to make it work?
Dont shout..however the whole area,and it’s my opinion..would have been better served with the airport remaining open...with connectivity to Amsterdam,Aberdeen and yes..maybe London.Limited housing and other developments.
The financial pot available being shared out for desperately needed infrastructure,road and rail improvements?
To me it’s schedules ,for the future of the area that are important..not a weekly Palma,Alicante etc. Those schedules are not obvious?
Heard Newcastle, who do quite well for those types of flights have just lost a potential Munich due Brexit...that factor will also affect Teesside Airport...interesting times.
Finally,cheers Beafer..enjoy your retirement...bet you will be back though!
