Re: Why Edinburgh becoming 'Scotland's Airport' isn't wise

GLA used a growing Ryanair base as justification for their drop-off charge. Somehow we ended up with no Ryanair base and the drop-off charge remained.

Exactly. And without actually counting we all know that those secondary airports have few airlines compared to the dominant one in each area. Thanks for backing up my point for me. We should never have accepted that it’s all the one market because in doing so we sold GLA down the river. GLA shouldn...

Thank you for sharing.

Re: 1-11s,707s and DC-10s

Given that “it’s aw wan market BTW” it’s not really comparable as we have 3 airports splitting the prize.

Pretty brutal when you see it in black and white. You know there...

Re: New Routes thread

EZY's GLA schedule is a riot. I had to fly BRS-EDI a couple of weeks ago due to the first BRS-GLA flight not being until the afternoon. 0 flight in the AM then there are 5 flights in the PM.
