More taxpayers' cash sprinkled about ;)

Germanwings to announce a pretty good ticket offer on their Edinburgh to Cologne-Bonn flights later today - pretty good day for EDI all round.

Question comes to mind of like WHY?

Its hardly route of the year, and if it is anything like the summer daily BM did from BHX-JER a few years ago then busy it will NOT be.

Someone else funding this venture, or part and getting something for an otherwise plane on the ground.

Ahh come on Tiger, give the man a break, its pretty exciting news for that part of the world!
It really makes them feel like they are truely international airport!

As we are talking about the C.I's. What has happened to the independent airline that was supposed to be getting set up by local business men on Guernsey?
