The times I've flown KLM from DTV the flights have always been near enough full...I don't understand why the time changed with the middle rotation from evening to lunchtime but I really do hope that MME can hold onto KLM.

There's a fantastic core of staff left at the airport, most of which have been there over 10 years and live and breathe the airport. I would hate to see it go under as it means former colleagues; friends, will once again have to go through the trauma of uncertainty.

RYR had good loads from MME, but as stated many times before, loads don't necessarily mean good yields and if the fees are still too high then there's not much the airlines can work with.

Unfortunately some poor management decisions in the past coupled with a huge economic downturn have compounded the issue...I just hope that VAS have a rabbit they can pull out of the hat (allbeit a large one is required!)

Just my 2p...
