Peel cancelled the contracts .. OK! (Thomson ET AL..! ... at the time (TUI UK came later) ... N707ZSzzzzzzzzzzz....IT WAS Peel that ruined prospects of immediate future mass charter flights due to their presiding business model based purely on profitability of operations and a questionable view on the future of their recently acquired asset. - Their main portfolio of business being property development for housing & industry (Media City, Salford, Intu Shopping Centres etc....

Peel at fault, the councils at fault and the Mayor at fault, whatever, one holiday company for next year will not solve the problem. The blame game is not getting the situation put right, it's either a housing estate or an airport for the use of the public. At approaching one million passengers I found using the airport very enjoyable, now the enjoyment has gone, how sad.

The previous mentioned were all at fault..and so were the public of Teesside for not supporting completely the airport.However you can understand that..cost is a major issue followed by choice and availability..so operators also to blame.
The aviation world has changed..is there really a place for 3 airports within a short distance..include Manchester and Edinburgh then all NE. Airports are being squeezed?
its decision time soon..get your money on the runners and riders...PEEL,Mayor or just maybe..someone else’s??

As Bjork..so beautifully put it..” It’s all so quiet”. is anything happening guys or do we just continue in the malaise that it has become.

With Balkan now flying from Teesside, maybe Wizz Air will take notice and consider opening a base at Teesside Airport.
Especially with flights to Central and Eastern Europe.
Look at what they have done at Luton with now around 50-60 flights a day, they could do the same at Durham-Tees Valley-Darlington-Stockton-Middlesbrough-Hartlepool-Teeside International Airport.
From there they also fly to Italy, Iceland, Croatia, Cyprus and Israel! Teesiders Im sure would love the new routes.
