This is the second part of my discussion with Pete. In the previous episode we talked about his aviation journey, the transition process from a route development role at LCY to Managing Director position at NQY and about the once in a lifetime experience of organizing the arrivals and departures of various international delegations for the G7 summit earlier this year.
Today we are going to talk about the recovery process at Cornwall Airport Newquay, where is the airport now in terms of its network, why Pete and his team even had to say "no" to some airlines that wanted to come to Newquay, what´s Newquay´s approach towards sustainability and how Pete sees the future of this regional airport.
