I suspect that is because the news was only officially released yesterday and is now starting to hit the media...

Not entirely clear what type of aircraft and routes that THG Air will fly and whether this will be a stand alone airline or one run in conjunction with someone else, possibly SQ? But I assume it will mean new jobs and business to the Airport in the medium term and let's face it any positive story is a bonus at present.
I expect Adola 69 will be along shortly with some comments .
