Doncaster Sheffield Airport Reopening Hopes Dashed as Owners Reject Council's Lease Offer
The owners of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, Peel Group, have formally rejected a proposal from the city council to reopen the facility. The council had offered a 125-year lease, but Peel Group stated the plan was not financially viable. The company cited the lack of a tangible proposal and significant ongoing costs as key factors in its decision. Despite this major setback, local leaders expressed deep disappointment and have vowed to continue their campaign to save the airport, which closed in November 2022.
