Have just read in a past issue of "Airports" that BHX has the distinction of being the world's fourth most expensive airport as far as landing fees are concerned.
No. 1 Toronto
No. 2 Kansai
No. 3 Narita
No. 4.... Brum!
Find the odd one out!
At least Kansai and Narita have world-class facilities (plus Kansai was built on an artificial island etc.). Toronto is one of Canada's major gateways. But Brum? That, in a nutshell, is the problem with BIA (mis)management: they live on another planet!
Now the ever-decreasing PAX figures make complete sense!
Local rumour has it that heads will roll in the marketing dept (if one can call it that). About bl***y time too!
Rant over (for tonight)!
Cheers
