The problem here is that when an airline is at GLA only and want/need to expand capacity and frequency, they tend to start an EDI service. When an airline is at EDI only and they want/need to expand, they add a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th!) daily service at EDI. Iirc Gordon Dewar openly stated in a intervie...

All seems to have went very quiet on that.

None that I am aware

Cargolux are now down to three flights a week (two ex Houston, one ex Seattle)

A work colleague and their family have just returned from a long weekend in the Algarve, they live in Bishopton but flew from Glasgow East. That's another 8 passenger journeys subsidising the second city's airport. The key to any recovery of this traffic is understanding the drivers - flight timing...

Im sorry, having looked at this and the schedule, theory, its utter drivel. Taking a bus from Aberdeen, missing most of the available flights, needing to pay £100 a head on overnight if that's your plan.. Take the car and park it. Cheaper and easier.

Quite agree. It's a distraction and a money drain PIK doesn't need. Remove this and let the airfield flourish doing the things it's good at whilst making good money. If only the politicians in this neck of the woods could grasp this eh? But are passenger ops a net cash outflow? With the indirect in...

AGS has access to one of the most diversified airline mixes of any major UK airport, and the company’s recent capital improvements aimed at accommodating large aircraft pave the way for new routes and higher traffic growth. Sounds positive, although I'm not sure what the "capital improvements" they...
