Racedo

Interesting maths re investment and the subject of route support, what seem to forget is that unless this £200 per head, which is probably on the low side is new money that would have been left in the bank then all you are doing is moving it from one holiday destination to another. The bigger problem is that a lot of these out the way places are worth visiting once maybe twice, take Granada, I heard of one couple who went on a cheap Ryanair deal and were amazed that there was no beach!!

Another person bought property there because it was so cheap and near to the airport, now they have to fly to AGP because Ryanair pulled out when the money stopped, as I say there is some benefit but a lot of the time is distorts the Market for a short period of time, they have created many jobs and much wealth, but if you believe their spin on job numbers for each press release there would be no unemployment in Europe !!
