I am sure one of the Killead three will have a spin on this .
I'm not so sure, if I remember when Ryanair left they blamed the Stormont government for not having the guts to make a decision on the proposed runway extension. If I remember it was approved then denied and the whole process was a complete shambles. Harbour then, unwisely in my opinion, decided not to proceed with runway expansion despite having paid thousands for consultants etc. I remember MOL speaking very positively about BA and his efforts and squarely blaming incompetent politicians.

In the meantime they have indeed invested heavily despite flights and passengers decreasing. The terminal and security is smart and slick, departures has been completely revamped with millions spent. They just need a few more people to actually use it! There wouldn't need to be any further investment for any new airline.

Who's the Killead three?
