MANCHESTER AIRPORT GROUP INTERESTED IN BELFAST

Manchester Airports Group (MAG) bosses are considering a move for Belfast City Airport after its Spanish owner put it on the open market yesterday, the Manchester Evening News reports. It says that the UK's second biggest airports operator has requested further details about Belfast City, which has a price tag of more than £100m.

A source at MAG confirmed the company's interest in acquiring Belfast City, telling the newspaper: 'We will certainly be having a close look at it but a formal offer is some way off. The group is interested in acquiring assets that add value for shareholders, and has an excellent track record of running airports.'

At the same time, MAG have been holding informal talks with private equity groups about the possibility of a joint bid for Gatwick, and have appointed advisers to find a buyer for Humberside Airport.

It looks like BAA are going to be offloading the likes of Gatwick and Stansted airport after all and MAG (Manchester Airport Group) are sitting pretty ready to pounce and take over and make a bid.

This can only be good news for Manchester Airport in my opinion due to the expansion of the whole group and better resources or is it? Will it take valuable funds away from Manchester Airport if all goes through and hinder the development of the site?

As far as off site airport parking goes I think this will help all of the off site car parks as if money if floating aroung from the group at other airports surely their focus on their on site parking at Manchester Airport should drop off allowing the offsiters to get more traffic.

Lets wait and see what the outcome is but in my opinion all will go ahead and the Manchester Airport Group will get what they want in the end. They usually do.
