excellent news, and quite the turnaround! I look forward to viewing the accounts to see where the extra revenue has came from.. i'm guessing military movements must be up significantly.

Theres one reason why they might choose to do this... the economics are maybe better than everyone around here thinks. PIK is a business like any other, and if the way to profitability was as simple...

How so? Care to explain?

No commercial passenger ops would be even more of an anti-competitive move. Removal of the competition at PIK will allow GLA to charge airlines more. Not exactly good for...

So the government decided having EDI and GLA owned by the same people was a monopoly and bad for Scottish travellers.. but they've picked GLA owners as the preferred bidder for PIK? Surely not...

Its not just runways that are hard to build... passenger terminals are hard to build too, and that's the dilemma. If you close the terminal and kick ryanair out, then you're done as a passenger...

£100m seems a fairly decent offer to me - the government only spent £1 on the airport, so if you write off £40m of debt, that's still a £60m profit. £200m of further investment would certainly be...

It's possible that there may be a role to play for passenger operations at PIK in future. Edinburgh is approaching capacity, Glasgow isnt far off too, if it can return to growth. Once they reach...

I'm not 100% sure, and its an interesting question.

Technically it's not a subsidy, but a loan, or at least thats what the government will tell you - EDI/GLA may argue otherwise.

Allowing lower APD rates from PIK than from GLA/EDI would be a...
