Delta fly GLA-JFK though, unless they are cutting that too?
No idea. Was EDI not year round or scheduled to go year round when the pandemic hit, with GLA being limited seasonal service?

EDI would have been two daily flights during peak summer to BOS and JFK with a winter frequency of daily to five times weekly JFK only. GLA had a summer only JFK but that’s now dead.

that leaves Glasgow with no flights to the US AT ALL
, with the exception of the charter flights with TUI, as United have no flights to New York listed

Absolutely shocking from GLA management
I never,ever thought I'd see that in print. Mis-management on an industrial scale I'm afraid.
Ffs, I'll be typing 'bring back BAA' at this rate. :x

I suspect the plan for VS/DL is to replicate Manchester, with a VS base operating all the routes for both carriers under codeshares. A couple of A330s should do the trick.

Next up I would speculate could be an Aer Lingus base, again following the Manchester model, to replace AA and utilise a couple of A321neos.

The Eurowings 4U flight was the one LH said mostly G and PA Postcodes were using from this country. Transferred the flight to GLA, made a big deal about it (German food etc at gate 28 to applaud the 1st flight) Then a short time after, same old, same old. Bang goes GLA - DUS …. Hooray, hooray welcome back EDI - DUS. The story with CPN from Scotland FFS they have been fighting with each other at EDI on this B & B route & GLA (them upstairs playing their video games) haven’t bothered their arses to even tempt.

Yes most of LH group services have returned. LH, EW, WK/LX and SN. At present the missing link is CGN for EW and not sure if MUC has returned yet.

Paris I read your post. CPH at its peak had four operators: FR, EZY, both of which weren’t daily, DY daily SK daily but later withdrew from the route. Both the latter carriers carried transfer as well as point to point business but, as you say, no effort was made to attract a GLA service.

Going through my old logs- it’s one of the few pleasures I can take from the lack of aviation right now, I used the BD service to CPH for onward connections to DUS/FRA/MUC after LH withdrew from GLA-FRA.granted by that time is was an Embraer operating the flight but at least it ran daily.

Sometimes twice daily and BD692/BD693/BD694/BD695 from memory? Or am I making that up?
