Teeside did not charge me for landing (even with RWY lights on!) and £4.23 for overnight parking. I got told to park with all the nice falcons and learjets and a man with a minibus picked us and took us to the terminal. The next day he dropped us off at the aircraft.
GColyer, I'd be interested to know when this happened. Only a couple of months ago, I had to divert to Teeside because the wx at my destination had crapped out completely, a very long time ahead of forecast conditions. By the time I got to my original, viz was down to 100m, with a cloudbase(fog) at 100', so I reckon I can be excused for calling this a wx diversion !

I got charged full whack for landing, handling and overnight parking (and no-one gave me a lift anywhere!).

When I paid up I asked why they don't subscribe to the weather diversion scheme, and the answer was "we just don't" - very informative ... !
