 Well - looks even less likely that Corvera will open.  I have just had an email from Jet2.com saying that flights into Murcia for next summer will be business as usual.   Suits me I have to say.

It's also the lead story on the front of this week's Leader newspaper. Obviously those of us who have properties in Los Alcazares hope these delays go on as long as possible, and we continue to enjoy the convenience of using Murcia San Javier, but the wider point is how much all this uncertainty is having on business confidence and passenger numbers generally at a time of recession.

The whole Corvera project has been ill conceived and badly executed, and reflects very badly on the PP politicians at the region who have pushed it through. I still don't understand the business case for having built the place,which mainly seem to be based on a proposal for a theme park, a scheme for which I still haven't seen confirmation of a single investor putting a single euro of their own cash into. If I lived or had a property near Corvera I'm sure I'd want the airport to open soon, but the whole thing seems to me to bring incovenience to many more than it benefits.

Considering all of the problems with Corvera (are the delays due to the runway, the flight paths, the military, we seem to have a different excuse every week?), I would have thought the politicans along the Costa Calida might have banded together to call for the whole project to be ditched and efforts instead being put into the much more immediate, necessary and beneficial job of getting more passengers through San Javier, which is hardly at full capacity. But if anyone is waiting for the Mayor of Los Alcazares to stand up for his town rather than going  along with his PP cronies at the region, I can tell them that they will have a longer wait than for a flight from Corvera.
