Not a nice sight....but I wonder is it solely a monetary issue. I know FR do not like airbridges not only from a cost perspective, but also because of turnaround time. I remember seeing figures quoting 10 mins additional using airbridges. I don't think however the airlines should be dictacting this, the airport should put them in anyway and when they are available insist they are used. Far too often airlines are imposing issues on pax that cause inconvenience. It's about time some airports realise that passengers are also their customers, and fight for better conditions on their behalf!
