Ryanair wants us, the general tax payer, to help it grow, if the government would kindly invest some of our money in the Airline they it will knidly do more business in Scotland.
Looks like Ryanair are looking for a bank style handout, they say:
“the fund would increase Ryanair’s passengers in Scotland by 1.5 million within three to four years, compared with the extra 400,000 that it already planned.”
It might not be a bad deal for Scotland, although it would take more than Ryanair to change the tourism fortunes of some area’s in Scotland.
A better ideawould be for the Scottish Government just put a pause of airport duty and use this fund to cover the gap the airports would see. This way all airlines benefit.
