Never mind the astronomical drop in passenger numbers.

Fingers crossed VS return to GLA and EDI is ditched.

Re: Barrhead Travel

Getting to Glasgow East Airport is a far bigger hassle than a quick change of flights at a well organised and efficient hub. Even more so on the return journey. Landing at GLA knowing home is just 15 minutes away. No matter how much money Gordon Dewar chucks at CityLink I won't be faffing about with...

Re: Barrhead Travel

Rather a contradictory post. Barrhead Travel will most certainly not be affected by incentivising their passengers to go via Edinburgh. From what I read on here and elsewhere, the flights from Glasgow East to USA are rammed. And how many are doing Gatwick to Disney rather than flying Virgin from Gl...

Re: Barrhead Travel

https://travelweekly.co.uk/news/air/lack-of-flights-impacting-scottish-bookings-to-the-us-says-barrhead-boss BA crew apparently now refer to the GLA-LGW route as the Disney Express. Virgin's loss would appear to be BA and Gatwick's gain. There is an irony to this coming from Barrhead Travel. A trav...

Re: Easyjet cancellations

I'm sure there will be plenty of empty seats at EDI that easyJet are desperate to fill with Glasgow passengers as is the case with most flights from EDI. But here we are again. Another thread and people just want to talk EDI. Since the EDI thread was rightfully locked EDI chat has taken over the In...

Re: Easyjet cancellations

Think this is due to easyjet Europe cabin crew strikes. Who knows, maybe they'll be able to offer you on a flight from EDI on easyjet UK? I'm sure there will be plenty of empty seats at EDI that easyJet are desperate to fill with Glasgow passengers as is the case with most flights from EDI. But her...

Re: Air Transat

From here on I'm going to refer to EDI as Glasgow East Airport given the airport wouldn't be handling a fraction of its current passenger volume if it wasn't for people travelling to and from Glasgow and the west being forced to use the place due to lack of choice and availability from GLA and the f...

Re: New Easyjet Route to Hurghada

As much as I'd love to see aircraft 6 (and 7 and so on) I can't see the base growing until the 5th aircraft is based on a year round bases. I could be wrong of course.
