Nighthawk117,
Interesting post there and make a lot of sense. Understand your rationale, really shows the scale of the problem at PIK and hence the level of subsidy necessary from Scotland Gov.
The advertised rates are rarely what the airlines actually pay at airports. Given the very competitive market place of airports around Europe who want to attract airlines to place their aircraft, makes the challenge even greater for the likes of PIK, hence the low rates suggested. The airports mostly make their money from the car parking facilities and the retail outlets in their terminals....
