It's interesting and enjoyable to get an insight into the operations of your local airport. As a flyer, you don't really see what goes on behind the scenes so this show allows you to get a peek. As a Yorkshireman myself, I enjoyed the light-hearted comedy and could fully relate to the sense of humour. Most of the characters made me laugh. That Airport Deputy Manager was a toilet though, with his neck looking like a vulture. What's he actually getting paid to do?

These sort of shows are my guilty pleasure. I love seeing fools arrive late for check-in (it's never their fault, naturally), demanding to speak to a "manager" etc.
However in this show, things are a little more sedate; not a lot happens, to be honest. The show features a conspicuous non-appearance by the airport's largest airline Jet2, but some chirpy Yorkshire staff, who, whilst not exactly playing up for the cameras, do sometimes seem to be trying too hard.
Nobody involved in the production of episode 3 can be comfortable watching this excruciating 25 mins or so. We saw veteran pop star Sinitta arrive and be escorted to the executive lounge, resplendent in a red dress. Where was she "jetting off to?" we wondered. No, she was hired as a "surprise" singer for the family of a marrying couple. Their befuddled expressions told their probable thoughts "who is this?"
Hale and Pace''s old Yorkshire Airline sketch (look for it) is a much better watch.
