David Johnson my apologies the auto correct kicked in just as I hit post I have edited the issues.
It's a problem that is a real nuisance on Firefox.

N707ZS - I knew that somebody would find either a spelling or grammar error somewhere; congratulations on being the sharp eyed one ;-)

EGPO - many thanks for your edit - you make a good point that KLM is still a plus for DTV which we sometimes take for granted. As to your other point that Peel must go, we're going to have think pretty hard as to how to achieve that !

Agreed - not exactly sure what "the full length of the field on the North side" means (taken literally it would mean the terminals going??), this isn't what is envisaged in the Masterplan and while there is demand at the light end of the scale in the north-east, you'd need something more substantial as well to justify the investment.

On a more general point, I don't think anybody with any interest in DTVA takes KLM for granted!

Hate to think where the airport would be without them. Their presence gives Peel great leverage with the LA's.

David its just a bit of fun!


SWBKCB sorry to say it, on the "master plan" there are hangars between hangar 1 and the terminal and then hangars on the other side of the terminal leading down to the fuel farm.

Sorry - I wasn't very clear. I'm aware of the hangars depicted in the Master Plans, but wouldn't say they ran " full length of the field on the North side" (e.g. doesn't seem to be anything planned for east of hangar 3?)

Just querying whether JG referring to what has already been suggested or something different. Like you I'd be interested in how they would be filled.

That is a nice big plot of land if you go from the Cobham hangar to the railway and back to the hospital site. Demolition work has been taking place the past few weeks of various old buildings.


Presume hangar sizes will be determined on demand that leads you back to ? Lets just hope they know!

I could see BMIR being a potential there, probably not Flybe unless by some miracle they add another airframe to DSA and did some limited W patterns to unserved destinations.
I am surprised DTV has no connection to Jersey given 80% of airports have that connection.
Southampton I was told is popular due to connecting to cruise liners?.
And I have said before and will again TUI need to return but I'd bet they would only offer similar to the HUY offerings.
It seems monumentally stupid to let it go under, seems your local MP isn't earning their keep!.

I guess the answer seems to be no, could do with the blue skies though!

Not profitable unless in mass volume

They are very busy, just in the US and not here at DTVA

Curious. When they redeveloped 18-24 months ago they stopped short of doing the foyer area, leaving passengers with the same poor impression when they walk through the doors, and now they're redoing what they already did?! I mean, I'm glad they are, it looks good and I'm glad the passengers will be able to see their PFFs finally going towards something, but surely it makes the first refurbishment a waste of money?!

DOs going 24H at the start of April, exec handling in house at the start of May, upgrade to CAT6 fire cover at the start of June, and now a terminal investment...these are not the moves of a company with ill intent!!

My gut is they are just trying to make us look more appealing to potential operators rather than they are about to announce something
