From an email I received this afternoon. How can Thomson justify this?

Yes I am sure that is what they would say. It means they could fly to Dalaman for £79 and still make a profit though, does it not...

No it means they are selling the bare minimum holidays at a loss to enable the advert to be legal.

They could humour us and sell one seat on one flight to one airport in Turkey next year for £79 then.

Dalaman airport, if its food and drink prices are anything to go by, is very expensive too, They Probably charge exhorbitant prices to land too!

I doubt easyJet pay much - I understood that as part of them starting to fly into Dalaman, the airport make pretty much nothing from the landing fees - their only reward being a bit of duty free from increased passenger numbers and the occasional left turner buying a Big Mac Meal
