So you like to wait for your customers at London City with almost no apron space available?
Sure, at least they got their act together in terms of :

- crew lounge with internet
- Nice facilities (in spite of their obvious space issue)
- apron usage to full extent possible

But I would not like to have to pay the landing nad handling fees everywhere.

So what does a business airport need:

- good facilities especially for crews that often have a long stay
- good IFR procedures (most desirable ILS with GOOD lighting)
- personel willing to go the extra mile
- easy to access aprons with short distances to cover aicraft/terminal
- an easy immigration / customs procedure
- cheap fuel
- hangarage at 'normal' prices

We usually do not need loaders, we do not need high viz vest Gestapo nor other procedures that are unique to one airport....

Go and see EDTY as an example. (with the exemption of the fuel price...)
