Let’s hear from all those people who are against the airport …. 3..2..1
This is short term. It’s the next 30 years we’re concerned about…..
How do you feel about the hospital wing project and our 30mn a year for 30 year obligation?
This question ALWAYS goes unanswered.
For understandable reasons as the posters would have to reveal their rank hypocrisy once again.
Bermuda is receiving $10 Million a year from the airport, calm down
Huh?
$300mil airport/30airportYears = $10mil/year I’m guessing. Plus we get the value of the airport after 30 years which will probably still be valued high if managed properly.
Who told you that lie?
He’s talking about not paying for the airport. It cost $300Million and they have it for 30 years and we get it back after that. Simple math…$10 million per year
Nice to hear, but most of the workers are not Bermudian.
Looking forward to not getting wet from terminal to plane and vice versa, but for $30Million a year for 30 years of loss revenue, I guess its worth it.
And what alternate ideas do you have for a broke and seriously in debt Bermuda to pay for it ?
And we’re still waiting for your take on the same (but worse) deal for the hospital wing.
“Most of the workers are not Bermudian”.
False.
Yes majority of them will be foreign tilers and masons.
False
Well Ive been on work sites with two of the companies and the masons and tilers were guest workers. You must be talking about the guy who drives the truck.
You just made up that $30 mil revenue figure lol.
Now do some research and tell me what the gross and net income is of the current airport is.
Just wondering, why is that great big bill board allowed by the old bus stop at the entrance? I thought we didn’t do signs like that
It’s time for change. Bermuda needs to get with it.
You mean more Bermuda companies. Where robain and jahmal now.probably still trying to understand the airport contract,
Damn Bermudians always bitching about something!
Shut up and be happy The Canadians came in to bail out a failing tourist destination – which will bring more people to your island. Never Happy, Miserable people
