Indeed but surely the government should have a say in this farce?It may be Holyrood or Westminster but one or the other has to get a serious grip on this and soon.I'm with Paris on this topic. A lockdown is a lockdown,nobody in or out of Scotland unless it's either medical or food supply chain related.
If we're serious about beating the virus then we must act like we are and this comes from the very top.
As I type a FR flight from KRK has just landed at EDI. Wtf?

My neighbour is going to TFS with his family , his reasoning is "f@@@ it " airlines as well should show more responsibility

Not with Jet2 this side of mid February he aint. Must be Ryanair. Hopefully he’ll get arrested if he tries to come back to Scotland during lockdown.

Our FM could maybe start curtailing holiday options by telling Transport Scotland to stop Ryanair's passenger operations at Prestwick (there is a flight to Tenerife on Friday)!!

Forget all the 'operates at arm's length' nonsense . . . . it is the Scottish Ministers who provide all the loan cash and in doing so subsidise Ryanair's passenger operations

Easyjet also flying GLA-TFS today, as well as GLA-AGP.

Seeing on the news today that Trump may try and make a bolt for Turnberry to avoid Biden's inauguration. I presume that would involve an appearance of his 757 at Prestwick, although I heard recently that's currently grounded requiring a new engine ? Does anyone know if he has any other private aircraft at his disposal (helicopter aside) ?

It’s because someone at PIK who shouldn’t have, leaked that a USAF 757 is booked in. Adding to speculation, Trump Turnberry is blocked out for the month.
2+2=5 and it’s gone viral. It’s even gone to the FM and it’s gone TATL

But:

1. He won’t be POTUS so wouldn’t have the privilege of using AF2
2. If he was and he did he’d be using the 747 AF1
3. The Turnberry resort is blocked out because it’s closed due to Covid travel restrictions
4. He certainly won’t be offered asylum in Scotland.

Repatriation flights, apparently.

If the Scottish Government had the authority, as normal countries governments do, to close borders, flights, airports, etc, they’d be looking at that. But sadly they don’t because this is a matter reserved to the UK. (So is the reciprocal agreement with USAF and other military/covert ops at PIK) Also the ban you want couldn’t possibly be stipulated for one selected airport or airline, it would have to be across the board.
