DTV - I have thought long and hard on the charter turn away, I cannot understand the gains by turning away passengers?? You can cut duty free and mothball part of terminal and still handle a couple of hundred passengers three times a week?? Security etc can be reduced just take longer to handle, as there won't be duty free then nothing for them to rush to!! The flights were all during normal working hours so no problem there?
If for the airport is not making money on the 'deal' well that would be another thing!! Just put prices up and let Thomson decide if they want to continue, at least make someone else the 'bad guy'!!
