Unless shenanigans with fare promotion/diversion to support GLA service, GLA and NCL will continue to show slow decreases.
Have you any evidence of the Shenanigans, from my contacts at EK, said that they introduced lower fares from EDI to encourage the new route (which always an industry norm) It was also heavily advertised even in the West. EK have played fair with the routes. GLA has shown a real commitment to EK over the years and so have the locals, in time the Edinburgh route will hopefully be a success but it has more competition from other airlines in Edinburgh that will continue driving down yields.
