I was looking at edi flights today , you are correct , most flights, even a few FR on ground for a lengthy time period .. in regards of bags lying outside , been told from pal who works in border force at EDI that wouldn't happen and has not happened.. They have rented a warehouse near edi to store luggage .Bearsden wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 8:51 pm Maybe Mr Dewar has got to enforce a reduction in airline slots . . . ah, I forgot, that will hit his bottom line!!
But what about corporate responsibility? . . . ah, not my problem, it's all the airlines & their handling agents fault!!
The situation described of bags lying out in the open (unguarded?) beggars belief
A random sample of a few departures tonight shows vast majority are between 2 and 3 hours on the ground at EDI

That's no golfing group!
Where are the clubs?
I firmly suspect EDI top management are 'cracking down' on any insider stories to try to minimise the very bad press the airport is getting
