So....to bring it back onto the topic of aviation. What are the major improvements on the way that would entice a full service airline to use BFS for
other Mickey Mouse shuttles?

Security is unacceptable. The lounge is tiny. The terminal is too small and bursting at the seams. The International pier is like something out of the dark ages and that is just the tip of the iceberg.

I presume Qatar, Emirates et al would expect major improvements before subjecting their customers (some may be status holders with certain expectations, currently using Dublin) to endure the low cost experience of Aldergrove? Perhaps a separate security channel for international departures with a small airline lounge constructed on the roof of the international pier might be a short stop gap if a Gulf based carrier was to arrive.
