Whyever AENA designed and built a new terminal with all airbridges in this day and age is beyond me. Most LCCs prefer steps in order to cut down turnaround times. They have wasted a great deal of money and annoyed their biggest customer into reducing operations significantly. The terminal would have been good with a mixture of steps and airbridges, and if they'd done their research properly before they would have known this. They've shot themselves in the foot, wasted their own money and now expect to pass on their debt bill for full service facilities such as airbridges to airlines that dont want to use them!! Its fine to want to build a superior class facility when you have a majority of superior class customers, but for crying out loud your biggest customer is Ryanair, who would be happy with a shed in the corner of the airfield!!
