AGS has access to one of the most diversified airline mixes of any major UK airport, and the company’s recent capital improvements aimed at accommodating large aircraft pave the way for new routes and higher traffic growth.
Sounds positive, although I'm not sure what the "capital improvements" they're talking about are?

I think the recent capital expenditure refers to the runway and terminal extensions at Southampton to allow A320 operations.

Nor "diversified airline mixes" . . . . sounds like PR speak by including Aurigny, Blue Islands, Eastern Airways etc, forget about Air Canada, American, Delta, United, Virgin Atlantic, WestJet etc

Let's start a simple listing starting from 01 April 2025 (to exclude EDI-YUL) to track net route changes (ie + & - frequencies) and new routes secured under the three airports (GLA, EDI & PIK) . . . a simple speadsheet will do

If anyone wants a spreadsheet about new routes at EDI they can go seek it elsewhere.
