The Airport parking of large passenger aircraft is a big joke, when are the authorities going to sort it out our is this for ever and a day.
The paper plane a BAE146 on saturdays unable to land before 0700 as there is only one stand to take a BAE146, so until the early morning Gatwick flybe departs they have no parking for it.
This weekend a Saab 2000 brings in passengers for the weekend, the aircraft unloads and gets airborne to park at Jersey for the week end, not the first time this has happened a Swiss BAE146 daystop did the same ferried over to Jersey for parking.
Nice bit of extra revenue for Jersey.
A bit of a joke for the operators.
The Airport was designed for nose in push out parking but due to a nember of issues this has not been achieved so parking is 50 percent restricted when are the States and the Airport authorities going to get there act together if at all this sort of thing might well be losing revenue as airline and charters are going else where and even to Jersey may be not good.
People have said before we are in a time worp so we need to ketch up, the states a going through some bad times at the moment but they and the airport need to sort this parking issue out sooner rather than later if at all.
