Why is it desperate to sue someone who broke a contract with you?

We do have an American route to a major US hub, why would we dilute a small market by moving some pax onto a Boston (for example) service when they would have connected anyway in EWR.

Besides which an additional transatlantic route generates little revenue for the airport. We need high volume traffic to European routes plus an Eastbound Hub legacy carrier for far flung folk.

None of which will happen while the Executive have their buddy Ambrose's back down below and no notion of how to help Northern Ireland as a whole by removing APD to take some business back from DUB.

Still why don't we just complain rather than come up with solutions.
