What's the point in opening on Boxing Day? Are they expecting lots of visitors?

What's the point in opening on Boxing Day? Are they expecting lots of visitors? Optimistic as always Brendan. In previous years there has usually been three or four Blink movements + some visitors. There’s usually a bit of resident flying, although as most on landing cards it doesn’t generate additional revenue. However, there was no publicity, operators weren’t told about the airport being open. This year we’ve lost Blink, but do have a couple of visitor aircraft booked in already. The difference is we are publicising it to the bizav community this year. In previous years Blackbushe has only been joined by Luton and Stansted as available to BizAv. This year Biggin Hill is staying open, so we may not have the advantage we’ve seen previously. We’ll see if it’s worthwhile and then assess going forward.
