Does anyone know what exactly is going on with the master plan? It was meant to be published in the spring yet here we are in July?

A thought occurred to me the other day when somebody mentioned how P.Kehoe's departure was rather sudden as they didn't have somebody lined up to take his place. May a resistance to his ambitious plans have played a part in his leaving the role?

We are hearing more and more stories of people being held up in queues for security, baggage reclaim, and other issues associated with a very busy airport. Something needs to be done and done soon. If passengers have repeatedly unpleasant experiences using BHX, they're unlikely to come back.
 
It all seems to have gone very quiet :(

If anyone remembers an interview a couple of years ago with Mr Kehoe he suggested that he was still to meet with other parties to discuss the new master plan and that 'he hoped the plans would be ambitious'.

I don't think that Mr Kehoe's departure was as sudden as it appears to us members of the public but lets hope that the ambition of the future, or lock of, wasn't a contributing factor.

How sudden or not will seen by how soon a successor is appointed.That should be soon if he gave decent notice.
If not soon questions will need to be asked as to his reasons for leaving.
 
Looks like foundations for the new hotel. Picture credit goes to PerpetualBrum from SSC

I hope that lessons have been learned from this year and they will be better prepared for S18.

Browsing Twitter yesterday it looked to be another night of chaos, airport staff were on hand but they just seem to be firefighting. The handling really looks to have been a total shambles, 40 minutes and still no steps at the aircraft, passengers waiting over an hour and a half with still no sign of bags, the reply is that Swissport are short staffed.

Next year they need to be on top of this or those extra passengers gained will not be coming back.
 
The world of capitalism, as long as the profits are being made who cares too much about how customer service is.Get tired of reading the same apology over an over again. Easier to blame everybody else rather then deal with the issues. If it's not the border control then it's shortage 0f baggage handler blah blah.Sorry state everywhere.
 
Just as a matter of interest and this isn't putting BHX off the hook as the situation seriously needs to imrove but with regards Emirates and DXB in general, ive heard a few horror stories about that airport too with waiting times and serious congestion. Does anybody have any more info on this ?

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
