Right now,we only have five loading bridges and, during the busy times of the year,we al- ways have seven or eight aircraft on the ground, so we have to do a lot of shuffling of people and air- craft,which isn’t in the airlines’ best interests.They like to park their aircraft and bring people in and out easily.
