ASFKAP,
You bet we are very happy in Oporto, indeed almost dancing in the streets.
We have been expecting today's announcement. Itīs very important for a small country like Portugal. It's the very first time that a foreign aviation company settled operations here.
I'm certain the base will perform quite well.
By the way, did you know that over 1 million portuguese people live in France? Most of them of northern Portugal? And yes, thousands in the Lyon/St. Etienne/Clermont-Ferrand area.
Guess what, half a million in Switzerland too.
Oh, almost forgot, in Holland (where i lived for over a year) we are a considerable community without cheap connections to Porto, only expensive TAP.
Eindhoven is just 100 km away from Nordrhein-Westfalen "heart" the "Land" with the major portuguese community in Germany, again, thousands.
Did i gave you another perpective? I hope so...
