Helped in part by Scotish Executive Funding!
Well done to Bmi but is this a way thsat tax payers money should be used? In the light of low cost carriers developing new routes such as Ryanair on Stansted - Newquay shouldn't the market decide the viability or otherwise of a direct air service?
My company is currently affected by a Foreign Organisation receiving the same type of funding from the executive. This is simply allowing them to dump capacity in the market place at commercially suicidal prices.
