Why would they need to re-clear security? They've already been security screened.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the 787's US based? So the 787 and crew would technically be based in, say, Oakland, and operate to EDI, where they overnight?

Therefore there is no reason why...

I'm not sure the relevance of whether Edinburgh is a "destination" or not has to do with its potential to become a transit hub. In a transit hub, it is neither the destination or the origin of the...

I've read a lot of complaints about EDI security on here, so I was keen to try it out this summer - I ended up using EDI twice in a month. My first experience was an early morning flight - 6am, and...

I doubt they will consolidate on a widebody any time soon. Unless they use a 777, then that will be a drastic cut in seat numbers.

EDI is within range for the 757, so they'll always use 757s...

A340-600 was the longest for a while, until the 748 entered service:

747-400: 70.6m
777-300ER: 73.9m
A340-600: 75.36m
747-8i: 76.3m

Although technically the An225 is the longest, at 84m.

Why do you feel a rebuild is needed? There is plenty of room between the current terminal and the South East pier for expansion. Even the South East pier can be expanded if needed.

This is the more likely, IMHO. They may sub one of the Glasgow flights for a smaller aircraft, but I think it will stay at 2x daily.

Assuming they do start EDI.

The longer they leave it, the more established QR and EY become. Better to get in quick and try and drive them out the market.

Thats still quite impressive considering the withdrawal of Little Red. Where has the growth come from to counter this?

There is no morning flight. 1455 and 2140 arrivals.

Although the later flight nightstops. Do you mean it arrives tonight and departs tomorrow morning?

Possibly, but don't forget there's been an increase in competition out of EDI recently.

Any idea when the change takes place? I'm off to Paris in June, and would like to get on an RJ85 while they're still flying. Looks like I might have to fly from Newcastle instead

There's a reason they posted a profit, and it's not because they keep running flights that are less than full. I hope ORD sticks around, but from what I hear the loads are poor, and it's unlikely....

United may well be looking at the A321LR as a replacement for the 757, however I'd expect Boeing will also be looking into the feasibility of a 739LR. They wont just leave this market to Airbus.
