Mayor's had another go - of course Teesside is also significantly smaller than Liverpool
“To do a comparison with the Liverpool City region combined authority, who have no financial interest whatsoever in Liverpool John Lennon Airport, they have just provided a £34m bail-out, so when you compare the bail-outs that other airports have had ours is significantly smaller because of the plan we have put in place.”

I think if you could find out what exactly the Mayor of Liverpool has and hasn't been paying for (well, the one who was in office until earlier this year) then that would make an interesting debate all on its own!

I was in London over the weekend, the Teesside flight was sold out so I went from Newcastle (out Sunday morning, back Monday morning - total 27 hours). Newcastle advance booking price was £36.99, by comparison Teesside is £15. I ended up paying £10 to park at the Premier Inn at Callerton Parkway.

Not entirely sure of your point highwide, as you seem to argue against the cost of parking in one instance and then support the cost of parking in another?
Likewise you question the loads on flights when it supports your narrative but then argue that a sold out flight is effectively 2/3s sold as if that's a bad thing? (I'm guessing on the 135/45 the middle seat in the 3 is empty)
What is your point on both elements?

Point is if seats are being sold on a low capacity aircraft landing at one of the most expensive airports in the world at £15 then not much profit being made there..or am I missing something?
Re the car parking..I’m not arguing against any charges..I’m saying after the flack the mayor received over MME car parking charge introduction..then he will have a smile on his face at the increase up the road.
Comprender?

Indeed I was saying that car parking was £15 at Teesside for 24-48 hours (versus £36.99 - soon to be £39.99 - at NCL).
However these threads can be a bit hard to follow sometimes as the mods do seem to like removing quotes from replies.

I'm confused, are you saying Teesside is one of the most expensive airports in the world?! Because that was always myth, never true.
And as for parking, we always have been and still are one of the most competitive tariffs, the complaints are entirely nonsense with the exception of how do you validate the two free hours when the cafe/travel agency is closed?

Esken Limited ("Esken" or "the Group") - Conclusion of strategic partnership with Teesside International Airport
https://tools.eurolandir.com/tools/P...wpf&v=redesign
Over the last 12 months, Teesside International Airport has secured an airline partnership with Loganair, attracted new routes and installed a strong, experienced leadership team, with the oversight of the Tees Valley Mayor and Combined Authority. Given these positive developments, Teesside International Airport no longer requires the support of Esken as an external strategic partner.
As a result of these positive developments, Esken will cease its management agreement with the airport and transfer its 25% ownership of Teesside International Airport to a new Teesside Airport Foundation for a nominal consideration (the "Disposal"). Esken may be entitled to a deferred consideration. If there were to be a future sale of Teesside International Airport before 25 January 2023 Esken has agreed with Tees Valley Combined Authority that Esken would be entitled to share in the proceeds of that sale up to an amount not exceeding £31.3m.

Esken played a key role in initially supporting Teesside International Airport's development following its acquisition by the Tees Valley Mayor and Combined Authority on 24 January 2019 and return to public ownership.
Did they really or was it just the staff who have been there for years.
