Interested to hear the press conference with Willie Walsh yesterday, his wording on the 7 year guarantee was very carefully worded. From memory what he said was, there would be a 7 year guarantee, made up of first 5 years as a given, and the balance of 2 years based on the assumption that charges at Heathrow remained the same as current rates .. which sounded like a very subjective item. Nonetheless, very welcome developments no doubt, and it would be nice to see Shannon reaping any potential benefits.
Didn't watch WW press conference in full but what I understood is the airport charges in question are here at DUB/ORK/SNN and not that at LHR.
