I'm sure I read that had been pulled already. Dewar certainly won't be shouting about it from the rooftops if it has !
I just double checked and you are indeed correct, really didn’t last long did it. I’ll still keep it in the original post as they did secure and operate it although only briefly.

Did not think they would last long with COVID and being up against Ryanair.

If only there was another airport in Scotland that didn't have a link to Riga and didn't have Ryanair.

There was an ABZ-RIX service operated by Air Baltic which I saw back in August this year and some years ago when I worked in ABZ as part of an IPS team.

Given the number of world leaders using EDI for an event in Glasgow, and CNN setting up a studio with the castle as a back drop, surely it’s time we renamed EDI as Glasgow EAST and changed the airport code to GLE?

- AirBaltic to Riga;

It's back apparently from next summer, Flyr also planning to fly to Oslo as well, could scare away Norwegian from the route as well given their financial position.

Afaik Menzies handle BT but Flyr? They’re meant to be flying to sunshine destinations so surpurepsed to see them in EDI. Despite financial issues DY has a strong presence and profit on intra Scandinavian Services - it’s like FR and DUB to UK services - a cash cow.my preference would be to plump for DY. Also SK fly to OSL from EDI sounds like a rather crowded market place.....

You mean it’s not always sunny in Auld Reekie?
