So how do airports square the circle other than through drop off charges, car parking etc? Really amuses me all those meeters and greeters who sit along the side of the road to avoid paying a £1 and completely forget that a few years ago many of the journeys they are making would not have been affordable. Those who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Careful TB, cool clear logic like that doesn't always work on Pprune. What will people do if they cannot let hate and rage guide them in their thinking.....?!?
