I dont see that it makes too much of a difference in attracting airlines, perhaps more diversion contracts though...

So as an operator you wouldn't be attracted by 24hr Cat III/Cat I landing capability?

I'm sure Thom Wizz Ryan etc are gutted that now they can make approaches in conditions that previously would have meant a diversion away from the airfield ...
For diversions? Yes... As an ATCO it probably makes your job so much easier.

Ok so give them a catchment area worthy of playing in.... Infact, why not invest some cash yourself and see....

Do you honestly think CatIII will bring in airlines? If so what has stopped them before now? Its not like DSA has had a bad diversion record!
