parking fee it it had helped keep the operation in business. Would we be
****ing and moaning if we had to pay parking fees to have kept Meigs open?
We DID pay exorbitant parking fees at Meigs -- and Daley bulldozed it
anyway.
Perversely, he was able to point to the low usage as a reason to close it,
completely ignoring the fact that traffic was kept low because of his
ridiculous $28 landing fee. Trust me, I'd have flown there every weekend
(and hundreds of other would have, too) without that landing fee.
And Chicago would have been millions of dollars ahead.
Of course, what can you expect from a regime that uses airport construction
money to destroy Meigs -- and then claims they "had to do it" because "Meigs
was abandoned..."?
