If only, another old Thomas Cook route ex Newcastle. Right now all these new destinations are appearing at EDI instead. Not necessarily a happy bunny.

Yeah another example of the airlines behaving like sheep. Why not try it from GLA?
With the airlines behaving like sheep supply exceeds demand so prices are in many cases significantly lower than GLA - a friend who regularly flies to the Canaries from GLA has switched to EDI faced with £900 ex GLA v £500 ex EDI

Sorry, I don't know full details except it is to/from Lanzarote - timings will be very similar but I suspect it is different airline

Jet2 frequency is similar from GLA & EDI at 4/5 pw

GLA only has TUI at 2 pw while EDI has Ryanair at 4 pw and easyJet at 2pw, not forgetting PIK with Ryanair at 2 pw

USA Pre Clearance

Post by atuk »

Looks like USA pre clearance is coming to EDI next year! Goodness where they will put everyone, mind you roof space is still available. :lol:

That bodes more UA, DL, Plus perhaps B6 and N0.

US Transatlantic at GLA will be no more if this goes ahead.

Despite EDI boasting its busiest-ever summer reality hit home this afternoon as flights had to be held over the borders for up to 20 mins each due to congestion on the ground. easyJet appeared to be the worst affected with EI and FR also being impacted.

Before some come and spout the corporate line from EDI management I took my information from passengers who were flying in this afternoon and were impacted by it.
