The airport have announced (see SW Echo or Icwales.co.uk) that they will be seeking to open routes to Rome, Katowice, Paris and a German city within the next two years. The failure of establishing a Paris route so far is blamed on high airport charges in Paris.
However isn't this what they said two years ago but made progress on not a single one of the routes on their wishlist? Also same old nonsense about starting services to the Far/Middle East.
