Liam Scollan interview in Irish Indo

Read this morning an interesting interview in the Irish Independent with Liam Scollan , of Knock airport.

The whole mood is very upbeat and its great to see it. He said that the US routes are part of a 5 year agreement with Flyglobespan. In addition he said he doesnt expect easyjet to come back to the airport,no surprise.

All in all he outlined the broader plan for the next few year including a business park.

Next trip to US I think I will support the route and try to use it even though it means driving to the West, I've heard that the parking is much cheaper there !

He was also asked would did he not think Aer Lingus would be a better airline to market and serve the route. He said that Aer Lingus were not at all interested. I wonder will they change their mind on this if the GSM service is a success. I think it will do fine.
