I cannot believe everyone thinks this is going to be a disaster.
First it is now a well tried formula.
Second, do you not think one of the biggest travel companies in the world have not done their homework ?...come on. They will have the top guys in all field from accountants, architects, engineers, everyone ensuring the logistics are in place.
I think it will be, for its initial relative small size of an operation, a real success. By all accounts, it will be relatively easy, barring nonsense at planning permission, to quickly increase the size of the operation, even if that means adding a few more Portakabins and a bit more tarmac.
Watch and wait. Theres no use knocking it until its given a chance. BY have excellent relations with the larger airports and have no need to move to CVT.
