And a huge money maker for the company. I guess that’s what it’s all about.

Ski traffic is also a huge money maker but EDI offers far more options and competitive fares. EZY alone have 15 weekly flights to GVA from EDI but just 3 from GLA. No doubt GLA aren't bothered anyway.

Yes. The GLA market is not a weekly flight to Geneva.

The issue with GLA ski flights goes back to TUI ditching Onghams seat allocations. Cue extra services form EDI dedicated to whole plane charters ( Austrian Airlines) then additional destinations such as TLS. Fast forward to Crystal taking seats on Ingram’s charter to INN and Crystal chartering BA Cityflyer on various routes as well. Another missed market like Lakes and Mountains where EDI outstrips GLA at least 300%.KRK, MXP, BGY, PSA, TLS, SVG via OSL/CPH, ZRH, MUC, SZG*, VRN*, BSL, GVA*, LYS.

LH claimed 70%+ G & PA postcodes on their EDI - DUS service, so they switched it …. Made no difference, GLA couldn’t hold on to that one 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️
