Iirc many of the flights arrived so late into MXP it was after the last public transport dep into Milan. I think at one pont the days of operation were also Th/Sa, which is unusual and doesn't suit weekend breaks.

It's predictably that with a much nighters frequency and better timed offering at EDI it would struggle.

Interestingly though, at EDI it does appear that FR to BGY seems to have overtaken EZY to MXP.
It still baffles me that a metro area the size of Milan, not to mention serving the Italian lakes and mountains, is unserved from GLA.
Exactly! - especially when we see that other airports like NCL, BFS, LPL and EMA have service.

I didn't say they were awful.

I said "weren't awful"

How does the number of rotations for S24 compare with S23 for EZY? Lots of away-based flying for S24 by the looks of it.

Is the 6th aircraft fully utilised yet, or are there more routes to be announced.

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.

The new plane will join Airbus A320 family aircraft already serving the airport
Has she just come from GLA's PR team by any chance?
GLA doing a better job promoting this sort of stuff via social media instead of posts about Greggs or whatever other retail outlets. Needs kept up.

What do you mean? The journalist has been working for AGS PR team? Don't think so but not sure. Why?

The first line of the article says it's joining three aircraft, implying a total of four.
How about the two A319s? . . . presumably they are not counted as A320 family but that technicality shouldn't appear in a public press release
