The commission found that both the costs and the benefits were lower at
Gatwick, but Heathrow was better overall.

For whom exactly other than Heathrow Plc and its spanish owners?

They weren't measuring benefits to airport owners.

Oh I think they were. In fact the airports and subsidiary companies who work
for them are about the only businesses who will benefit. That guff about
businesses flying to meetings in Ping Pong province in china if only the routes
were there was plucked out of the airport owners backsides.


There is no Heathrow plc. If you actually meant Heathrow Airport Holdings
Limited, it's only 25% Spanish-owned.

It seems quebec and singapore companies own most of the rest. So thats ok then.
