Rebranding
Aberdeen International.
That's original!
Most UK airports are "international", the presence of several nearby overseas countries makes this obvious and neccessary. Indeed it's the same accross Europe.
How much shareholders' money was wasted on this exercise in despair?

I always called it Dyce International
The BAA commissioned this video which manages, for reasons best known to themselves, to talk about "a small place like Dyce in Scotland" (0:23) without making any reference whatsoever to Aberdeen

ABZ just posted December and annual statistics.
December was up 2.9% to 242k with domestic and intl traffic up 7.4% and 5.1% respectively. Helis were down 14.9% owing to the grounding of the EC225.
Year total was 3.36 million - up 9.1% - and the second busiest year in its history.
2013 should be a record breaker hopefully!

Most likely nothing but on the ABZ website for a competition (Tickets for a Man Utd game) there is a tick box asking if you would like to receive communication from "a marketing partner - Ryanair".
Could this be a hint of ABZ and FR getting back together?

Could this be a hint at ABZ and FR getting back together sometime in the near future?

My question is now, with the rebrand & move away from BAA branding, does the AAL management have a greater freedom to strike a deal with whichever airline for new routes? Or have they always had that freedom - rightly or wrongly, I always thought they were hamstrung by high costs due to being within the BAA umbrella & not being able to be flexible with what they could offer to airlines as incentives to come here.
Capt Doony, I don't see any reference to Ryanair in the competition. I don't intend to enter, but does it only come up once you enter? I see reference to bmi Reg as the airline involved.

Interesting little snippet from the P&J.Sir Moir Lockhead (ex boss of First Group)has said that Dyce International is outdated as he was on a plane that was diverted due fog.He is suggesting that the ILS equipment is ''Outdated'' as it's only Cat 1.Other airports have Cat 2 and 3,and BA can land in these conditions.
He arrived 7 hours late having been BUSSED from Edinburgh.
Quite a few years ago I had a BA 737 do an auto land on 16.He asked if the ILS was CAT 3 and I said no CAT 1.The ILS equipment was just fine,apart from the safeguarding/ILS beam protection.He was visual of course but let the aircraft autoland.
So it must be the airport,lighting system,basically the BAA's domain.
OK have flash branding,but perhaps a CAT 2 ILS at one of the UK most foggy airport should be considered.International airport it isn't.
