I assume this was directed at me. Well, I am a business flyer as well and I am also part of the business world - where things are usually done on the basis whether there is a business case or not. Apparently there is no business case for car rental companies to keep their airport office at MME open for evening flights which, based on the size of the aircraft used into MME, appears to make some sense as the number of suits staggering off the aircraft and renting out a car on a daily basis will be very small. The airport or the airline could off-set the additional costs, but apparently for them it is not a business case either. As others have pointed out, it does not mean that anyone is stuck at the airport, it is just a little bit more expensive to depart on a car.
