RYR Maintenance base at PIK
Maybe it's not as clear-cut after all. I hope I'm proved wrong though...........
From yesterday's "The Herald" P.19 Business :
RYANAIR, the low-cost airline, will decide in the next four weeks whether to invest up to £15m in a new maintenance base at Prestwick airport, bringing 200 new jobs to the area.
Michael O'Leary, chief executive, said Prestwick airport was
in competition with Bournemouth airport for the work. "It will be decided in the next month" he said. The sticking-point, he said, was the cash being offered by Scottish Development International (SDI), the inward investment arm of Scottish Enterprise.
He said that although he was keen for jobs to come to Scotland, the current offer from SDI was not enough. "What they have offered us I can count on one hand", he said.
