Do airports pay airlines?
Yes, airports often pay airlines through incentives like marketing support or reduced landing fees. This encourages airlines to operate new routes or increase flight frequencies, bringing more passengers and boosting airport revenue from shops and parking. Ryanair's network expansion often benefits from such deals.
