I have not used Doncaster yet (wrong end of Yorkshire for me) but given Doncaster location and the problems that appear to stem from not being able to get KLM to move there I wonder if anyone at the airport has spoken to Lufthansa. The nearest airports with a service to Germany by them are Man, NCL, Birm, and I would have thought that there would be enough business from Humberside and East Midlands as well as South Yorkshire to cover one or more flights to Frankfurt with the onward conections to the rest of the world as offered by KLM. Also I beleive they are trying to expand into the reigons within the UK as KLM have done when I have talked to their crews (use them from Man instead of BA via LHR). Any thoughts ?
