New route - PLAY - Reykjavík to Glasgow

[Clive]

So Icelandair either compete with play who only have about 5 or 6 onward connections or move east and compete with EZY, UA, DL, WS, VS & AC

Aye but some folk in this forum are obsessed by the beast in the east. Even good news is met with derision.

Not obsessed in the slightest .. history recently tells a different story

If we really are all saying that all roads lead to EDI there’s not much point in us all being here to discuss it IMO.

We have opinions , that's mine and I am sure others share it .. and some not and that's OK.

Agreed, but let's remain positive for the present

I seem to recall reading that FI have slots for daily ops at EDI.

Let’s wait and see how this one PLAYs out

If there's anything we can learn from EDI its that getting as many airlines in competing as possible drives down fares and pulls in pax, so hopefully it's good for GLA.

Although it seems a bit better now, FI fares to KEF itself have generally been quite pricey - maybe this might help to get more realistic fares to Iceland.

According to ITK guys elsewhere FI have cancelled all their slot requests for EDI !

I’m sure we’re all lining up to congratulate GLA bosses for landing this new business despite the competitive landscape that weighs so heavily on us.

Nice to see a new carrier at GLA.
