Edinburgh

How many US flights is that now to EDI? Quite impressive I have to say

Peak summer on a Saturday for example = 9 x US departures.

VS - Orlando
UA - Newark x2
UA - Chicago
UA - Washington
DL - Boston
DL - JFK
DL - Atlanta
B6 - JFK

What was it at EDI in S19? UA to EWR, ORD and IAD, AA to PHL and DL to BOS and JFK?

We just need to accept this is how is going to be from now on

Sounds about right.TUI also operated EDi-MCO or Sanford 1 x weekly in July and August I believe.

Edinburgh are just cramming in airlines to inflate their sale price.

The raison d'etre of private equity, one shot at a sale and a big ROI . . . but it also puts more pressure on AGS for its bank loans negotiation next year given its huge debt mountain

It was interesting to see EDI's comments about the Wizzair move - frankly not bothered, (our key based airline) Ryanair already serve both cities (so their yields will improve making the value proposition of expanding at EDI more attractive) (my comments in brackets)

Perhaps, but they weren't exactly going to publicly say they were really upset about it!

They had a similar view when TUI pulled metal and routes out as well. Vueling have yet to put their EDI flights on sale and it looks like its the only UK route not loaded for next summer, although I may have missed one.

Indeed.

Indeed.

It has been the norm for years now. AGS are useless.

Not sure there is much they can do if the airlines prefer EDI over GLA

I don’t think they are really bothered, they are more interested in long haul, they see themselves as the LHR of Scotland.
They have all the European flights they need.
