Re: CWL gets £206m to boost passenger numbers

Yes, it shocking how much money is being put into CWL for very little return, but they're clearly very worried that it closes without support and Wales is left without an airport. It certainly puts the SG's purchase of PIK into perspective. Leaving that aside I think that CWL is a warning for GLA. ...

Re: Visit Scotland refuse FOI request regarding airline engagement

The perception of unfair is very understandable. However, any body or company or organisation tasked with promoting a sector of the economy, business or the country more generally will always target the city or location or business which offers the highest potential return on the investment.

Re: PIK

Thanks FlyGLA. No new info about the proposed buyer or their plans for the site (which is what I’m interested in because I want it to succeed but for the new owners to close pax ops and for Ryanair to move those to GLA) but the article was more about the journalist highlighting how dumb and out of h...

Re: Lufthansa

'Hardly an event worth noting'; dismissive and discourteous language. '....misleading....intentional'; accusatory language. Not the kind of language for one member to use towards another in a forum where we all have the same aim at heart. I log in here regularly, often think of posting, have done s...

Re: IB

It was never my intention for it to come across negatively, quite the opposite, in fact. If it was perceived that way, I apologise. My point was to highlight that if we can successfully sustain a daily service to one of the smallest hubs in Europe, then surely many of the others would also be viabl...
