Bailey said he “wouldn’t give a categorical no” that MAG won’t close “some of the smaller airports”.
“That is sad,” he said, “but I think it’s just about the cost of making those businesses operate.”
What a complete and utter feckin idiot
If there's a better way of pissing off some of the MAG major shareholders I've yet to see it. To think such things or discuss them privately is one thing, to utter them publicly is commercial suicide.
I would suggest that the "UK's smaller airports" have a better chance of survival than Mr Bailey.
