Who will pay for 6 million people in Yorkshire the additional cost to get to MAN to take a flight that is 100% viable and profitable from a fully functioning and well located and accessible airport within Yorkshire?
I want to fly to Florida. Many hundreds of thousands of Yorkshire and Humberside people do. Will you pug pay the difference in travelling fare for doing so from MAN to fly (even on lovely HS3) as opposed to a functioning and well located airport within Yorkshire?
