That’s a lot even by exaggerated Ryanair estimates - forecast 300-400 direct and indirect jobs per aircraft based. But a couple of thousand more realistic.
ChrisThat's what I thought. Sounds like total nonsense to me.
16 aircraft = 7000 jobs!! - really?? Sounds somewhat of an exaggeration given the whole Palma airport employs substantially fewer people than this - this article implies 7000 'extra' jobs will be created from the arrival of these extra planes - has the journalist been on the kool-aid put out by the Ryanair mktg dept??
Shh....don't tell the anti-tourism protestors.
