There was a tweet for the 20th anniversary but not much else. The likes of this tweet gives you a good indication of the type of social media team they want to be:

They mention a year of Greggs but not 5 years of A380. What a shower 🤷‍♂️

Bollocks .. gla was double daily with a service at edi even with a A380 ... think that's you hoping that would be the case

Would like to say the same for QR but highly unlikely to happen.
