CityJet: Sale could jeopardise London City Airport’s future

CityJet has cast doubt on London City Airport’s long-term future should a mooted £2bn (€2.59bn) sale go through.

The airport’s second largest carrier expressed serious concerns about its viability if new owners hike airline charges to compensate for the £2bn price tag that’s been put on the airport.

CityJet executive chairman, Pat Byrne, claimed such a move would “bring into question the long-term sustainability of airline operations at London City Airport”.
