More of the same but will take all the crumbs we can get.

Apparently XQ are a good product too - holiday love child of LH and TK

Nothing new to folks on here but some good local publicity for aircraft 6, might get some folk to look at booking for their hols at a later date from the airport. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/scottish-news/24294587.easyjet-introduces-sixth-plane-glasgow-airport-ahead-summer/ The new plane wi...
