This was in the airport consultative committee meeting minutes for January 2024, with all the names redacted before the minutes being published, for all I know it could have been a cleaner that said that his neighbours cats heard something.

I highlighted the September comment, and a link to the website it came from is here; https://www.glasgowairport.com/about-us ... committee/
Cheers George. Thanks for posting.
"Demand for flights into Edinburgh is now beginning to fall". Really? That's news to me and flippant to the n'th degree. The big announcement in September? I reckon there's a new burger joint opening at the airport or that GLA will have the £1 non-refundable trolleys. Come on AGS, make me eat my words, just for once. I double dare you. :D

How any business would allow this into the public domain is beyond me!

2x weekly ATR42 to Humberside I guess. :lol:

Only "aspirations" to get a US service in 2025 shows the CEOs words to be hot air imo. He gave the impression it was more advanced and a top priority. Meanwhile LBA CEO says they'll have US schedules in 3 years.

The pound is going up v dollar and some are forecasting it to keep going up - this should favour GLA with more outbound and undermine EDI with its greater inbound, as holidays in Scotland for US visitors will get more expensive.

Can we quote you on that? Jesus, we may as well hand back the keys and tell everyone it's closed.... yeah things aren't great at the moment with regards destinations but who knows what's going to happen..... glass half full here (something strong, please)
But worry not my friend. I m certain I read a document on here from someone in senior management who said " but wait until September" or something close to that. So here we are. I cant wait to read whatever it is...

So GLA management were trailing "big announcements" in September? What they were apparently forgetting to mention was that they would be at EDI! :lol:
