As for landing charges, the question you have to ask is whether Peel had to charge them to try to turn a profit from the meagre traffic that the airport attracted. It's a chicken and egg thing, but I very much doubt that Peel were trying to sabotage their own investment.

And Brexit.
Why not sabotage everything? Drive prices up, force wizzair out leaving only TUI. Not enough income to justify keeping it open, end result, sell to a raft on people who just can’t wait to buy the land.

They won’t be the first or last to do this albeit they have a record for this.
