To be fair to the airport, it's not just pay: it's also waiting for enhanced background checks to complete, for staff to be trained, increased numbers of staff off sick, etc. etc.
The vast majority of the aviation industry even at the early of 2022 wasn't expecting the resurgence in passengers numbers that has been seen.
