I think the playing field would be very different if GLA's management were as aggresive as EDI's. The same goes for your Ryanair point, we did get a Ryanair base and AGS failed to entertain them, so they left. Nothing will change until the airport is under proper management.

Does this mean you are dismissing all of the points above?

In what way did AGS fail to entertain them?

Re the point about EDI bringing Glasgow into EDI’s catchment area - I see this all the time on Google Flights when I’m looking for trips. Automatically defaults to Edinburgh based on IP address and I stay on the 23 approach just outside the city boundary.

Alliances are another factor of course. GLA must aim for a decent number of airlines within the alliance groups.
