Edinburgh-4
Planeraz,
No.1 priority is usually maximising profit which generally squeezing quarts into pint pots. Longtermism tends not to be a high priority these days which is a shame as infrastructure needs a long term view.

Should Blackrock retain EDI, presumably, airlines such as Delta and United could benefit commercially re landing fees etc and the airport may have easier access to the right people for further route developments.

Wouldn't that be illegal under competition laws in the UK? Unless, of course it was applied to all airlines.
They will spend money on development only if they see an adequate return on that investment in a timescale that works for their clients.
Personally I would prefer public investment in infrastructure but that isn't the way we do things these days unless of course where road building is concerned.

Yes, BA in particular are very big on Indian routes, standing in domestic arrivals in either EDI or GLA and seeing the amount of bags tagged from an Indian airport can be a sight to see, you dont think 15 large suitcases can fit in a fiat punto, but determination makes it work
as we know it shows the final then any connecting airport but not the originating airport.

Unless I am reading incorrectly thats a very big number but a very small %age of the total shares.

Ues you are, focus on the 38 million shares they hold. Delta shares are scattered to the four winds, to get consensus requires the likes of blackrock and Vanguard (11%) most pensions holding only have 2%

In some cases it's as simple as sitting across from somebody who has bags as they wait for a lift or a bus.

A £2bn development with 7,000 homes as well as shops, schools, social and medical facilities is being planned for a site near Edinburgh Airport.
If planning permission is granted, West Town will span 205 acres between Gogar Roundabout and Ingliston Park and Ride. It is described as the single biggest homes-led development in Edinburgh in modern times. The development is designed so residents could live there without needing a car. Developers said the site would also have 27 acres of parks and a network of cycle, running and walking tracks. The West Town Edinburgh consortium, which is behind the plan, was formed in April 2021 by Drum Property Group.

For anyone not familiar with the area, the line which bisects the site is the tram which will get an extra stop. The existing P&R stop is in the bottom right of the picture and the runway is the old one which is disused.
