[FONT=times new roman]Ringway do not have monoply at the Airport. But it does help when you are owned by the Airport. As of mid september Ringway have been put on notice to restructure the company. Yes it looks like the FAT-CATS of the company are trying to get fatter. The company have totally screwed up on there pricing, So they are left with red faces once again .
The workforce have been told that changes have to be made for the company to carry on. Rosta changes are the main issue once again. You think that you had it bad this season you aint seen nothing yet. Biggest change yet are Crews on the apron to get smaller.This will impact on safety standards.Prices have to go up or the airport have to transfer some of the landing fees to the Handling agents. Prices at Manchester are the Cheapest in Europe (Not landing Fees ) Avaince, Serviceair.Globe and Ringway are all in the same boat. The Question that needs to be asked is that if Ringway fold who will do all the work. Ringway have a ready made workforce ready to put on a different coloured Tee-shirt. Ready to work for a REAL COMPANY with REAL MANAGERS. The airport need to wake up to the fact that THERE IS A REAL WORLD OUT THERE. so says the slug.
