And at the very least, recapture the capex spent on an A380 Airbridge that doesnt have an A380.

Total vanity project. North of £2m wasted on the airbridge and lounge.

Revenue from pick up and drop off fees wisely spent! I wonder what they’re investing those in now? Certainly not route development.

Wonder why the DXB-DUB EK 777 diverted into PIK rather than GLA. It's not as if GLA is rammed?

Certainly didn't hang around at DUB - a lot of holding at that time (very similar to a few weeks ago when drone activity caused diversion to Edinburgh after minimal holding)

Probably planned minimum fuel alternate

It’s still sitting at PIK now. Crew ran out of hours?

Qatar just confirmed 10 weekly at Edinburgh from February, before going twice daily, assumed by autumn. If Emirates don’t get their finger out at Glasgow and increase capacity at an early stage, there won’t be a market left for this at Glasgow. Let’s hope they do it soon.
