Just read a tweet from Chief Commercial Officer ( Finnish bloke) 9 minutes ago. Someone asked the question... " Is This a replacement for GLA?"
His response was
" Unfortunately yes. Glasgow customers have been rebooked via Edinburgh (sic)"

I mean. What the actual F$$k ?

Still bookable just now, but that could well change on 18 Aug.

Depressing.

No room for sentiment in this business - especially in the post Covid landscape we find ourselves in

Yes but why switch to EDI as this is not even an inbound tourism thing ? More brown envelopes being passed around ?

Could it have any bearing on DL ops from Edi? I know both EDI and GLA flights have been cancelled due to Covid however DL aim to restart EDI but not GLA as things currently stand.

That said this is bad news for GLA. Is it’s future a puckle of hub schedules: AMS, DUB, DXB, FRA, KEF, LHR, plus leisure schedules and charters from EZY, FR, LS, TOM and W6; plus LM?
