A quick glance at EDI & PIK shows significant reductions, some routes 100%, others not 100% but substantial eg the only flight left from PIK would appear to be weekly TFS

It will be no surprise to anybody but GLA's rolling annual will be down to around 2m by end Dec and 1m by end Mar

AGS Revenue @ 2%
AGS Costs @ 80%

I cannot see mass testing bringing back significant traffic volumes in the short to medium term

I still remain confused why the press picture of the CEO of AGS remains one taken at Heathrow

What’s the difference where his photo is taken ...? It’s him standing or sitting with a blurred background. Could be anywhere on the planet, the focus is on the person, not his location.

As I've always maintained - BAA/Heathrow/AGS - they're one in the same thing. Always were.

Nah, it’s just an old photo. The editor will not have a clue about what can be seen through the window behind the subject.

I’m sure Bearsden will be able to explain the shareholding in AGS which is held by McQuarrie and Ferrovial.

LHR is owned by a consortium of 7 international investment firms including a 25% holding by Ferrovial.

When will Covid testing for Glasgow Airport arrivals be put in place? How many Glasgow airport arrivals are infected with Covid?

In South Australia they have traced the latest Covid Outbreak to a single passenger who arrived on a flight from London.

In Western Australia all of their cases of Covid have been detected in Quarantine hotels where all airport arrivals must stay for 2 weeks at their own expense Or from crew or passengers arriving from ships.

Western Australia (half the population of Scotland’ has only had 787 Cases of Covid & 9 deaths and no Community Transmission of Covid for 7 months.
