It is not because it is different it shouldn't be professional. Finding out that Notams/ ATIS don't reflect the actual situation 3 mins from an inbound fix is gash wherever it occurs. Last time it happened to me was in Austria, so it is not purely a Med thing
In any case, procedures in many airlines ( including I think Bob's) is that you have to break off the approach , hold, and rebrief for the new approach, hardly the slick operation you would wish to orchestrate.
It is surely incumbent on any airport to advise, in a timely fashion, any deficiencies not advertised by Notam /ATIS (if applicable) to inbound traffic at the first opportunity. Even if one's cheapo company sends you to the back of beyond, that is merely being professional ,& cack all to do with the perceived or actual status of the Airport.
