Subsidies have no place in a competitive market (or as close as possible to such), and if applied must be applied in like to ALL operaters to Jersey. Reduced fees for the airport are the only acceptable way of doing this: it is not as though they are subisidising a new route as such since others fly to London airports - it is helping an already lean operater move to a oligopolistic position on the route, which is what would happen if not applied in like to all.
