PlasticPilot: You are right of course, visiting a/c are hit up similar to any other airport with 'International' in the title!!!! A/c based there are given cheaper rates I believe.
Nope not quite true. Bournemouth home based aircraft either pay the same as visitors or have the privilege of paying 200 times the standard rate for private owners or 400 times for companies for an annual landing concession. The only saving is not having to pay handling fees, providing you have a private parking space that is.

BTW Manchester Airport Group dropped "International" from the Airport's title some years ago. Pity their concerns not to misrepresent didn't extend to their fee structure.
