Lba
Not to feed the troll- far from it. but this debt , now that one company now has the total very large debt from two airports .
( Monarch went down and that was a real loss ).
To then have an airport which has well publicised WX issues .
Access issues which local authorities - central government own that fault.
Plus for future expansion the master plan is impressive .
But the WX will always be a thorn. LBA needs to grow.
But has the above issues .
Sadly where exactly does that poster think they'd move to ?
Not an Ex RAF Field close to the end of THE Proposed HS line. ( nimbys will have a field day ).
Plus DSA - is down the road. suffers WX occasionally but is well connected , huge site .
Finally LBA/DSA could easily one day ( never say never ) .
Norweigian offer these flights to ' Providence ' for example .
No need for big wide bodies .
As for Leeds being a housing Estate in 20 years -NO..
Even if every Airline left tommorow it's too long established with other business.
I won't name the other poster but to suggest closing such a long lasting site and move it close to a site where nobody has heard of.
Plus the legal challenge from locals to more than double that site - and HS2 .
Never going to happen imho.
