Sadly there is no requirement that politicians reflect either the values of their country the people. In this case I have no idea whether it is even renotely practical to keep a full staff on hand at the airport in case of diversion.

I’m sure for a price you could have 24/7 customs
not sure how much they charge for landings but I doubt they’re making a huge profit from occasional unpredictable landings vs maintaining huge runways in cold weather
