How is BFS confined in unfair competition? They are the biggest and busiest airport in NI and have the capability to offer routes to just about anywhere. The unfair thing is APD, in my opinion and that is affecting every airport in NI, not just BFS. Removing APD would put our airports on a level playing field with DUB.
Well that is only part of it. BHD has the upper hand in that its Chief Exec is the chairperson of Tourism Ireland (who awarded KLM big dough to go to city) How this is not a conflict of interests I am yet to be told. Also he is a buddy of the first minister. You say if APD was devolved it would let us compete with DUB but that won't happen while the City is thriving on such an unfair footing.
