"Common Sense" always takes shots at ORH!
______________________________________________________
Lets set the record straight:
- We do not want the City of Worcester in the Airport Business
- We do not want the City of Worcester in the Hospital Business
- We do not want the City of Worcester in the Nursing Home Business
Thankfully the City of Worcester got out of all these businesses.
Today Worcester none of theses businesses costs the taxpayers of Worcester nothing.

We also:
- Do not want the City of Worcester in the golf business
- Do not want the City of Worcester in the train station business
- Do not want the City of Worcester in the Convention Center business
- Do not want the City of Worcester in the baseball stadium business
Next year these 4 businesses will the taxpayers how much money in FY 2022??

Trying to compare the airport that costs the taxpayers nothing to Polar Park makes "NO Sense"

old City Hospital to UMass. I for one would like to see our airport thrive, but there comes a time when you have to stop throwing good money after bad. Massport is losing millions just to keep the lights on at the airport. Bill, I understand you used to own a check cashing place at one time.Let's say you spent $1000,000 to renovate. What would you do if three years later the business was losing $75,000 a year. You're probably going to have to sell or lease the building. I look at the airport as a similar situation. Maybe you can tell me what your plan B is. If the JFK flights don't get profitable load factors then they're probably going to be cancelled. Also, I don't see American and Delta coming back. I just read that American is cancelling flights due to a shortage of pilots. That doesn't bode well for ORH. I think the the people in Central Ma.are to blame. They've never supported our airport to make it a viable alternative to Logan. So, maybe can you tell me your plan B.
Bill used to blog fairly often on the great load factors for the Orlando flight in spite of the less than optimal flight times. In fact, IIRC, he advocated for better flight times with larger aircraft for the Orlando flights.
