It will be very interesting to see what the forth coming budget has in store for our industry.
Long haul APD is killing budget long haul flights and doing immense damage to the tourist industry of many of the former out posts of the empire and countries that we spend much overseas aid on.
The cap on LHR and the airport operators charging regime is slowly killing off access to LHR from the regions, gone in the last few years are MME,LBA,INV,JER as well as BA to NI and now bmi to GLA
If we were now under way with R3 with construction due to start after the Olympic build finishes then tens of thousands of jobs funded by private money would be created.
The green issue has been hijacked for tax revenue, how many tons of Co2 are created holding inbound to LHR compared with other European hubs
Time HMG got a grip
