When Southwest Airlines first approached RIAC the landing fee cost was $.66 per thousand and the cost per enplanement metric was projected to be $5.25 per passenger in 2005. Due to excessive salaries and head counts at RIAC as well as wildly excessive borrowing for things such as the useless Interlink ($266 million) landing fees are over $4.00 per thousand and slated to double under the expansion plan. Enplanement costs have now doubled over their 2005 projection and scheduled to go up again to pay for the extension. Airlines are downsizing and pulling out partially due to these excessive costs.

Increases in costs to pay for the extension will drive more large planes to Boston and push airlines to use turboprops at Green.

Is that good for the economy?
