 "verdict": "Waiting for a date that has not been published is not a strategy, and neither is hurrying because somebody printed one. As far as I can verify in August 2026 there is no official commercial opening date, only a September or October target. Decide on horizon and paper, not on the airport. Dated 25 August 2026.",
