Exactly correct. I've pointed this out before to PlaneMad. This is just more fantasy made up on the spot rumours from the EDI fantasist.
PlaneMad has an obsession with posting made up rumours about Icelandair and WestJet adding EDI. He's made the same post many times over the last couple of years. Never has there been any substance to it, nor has it ever came from a reliable poster. I can only presume that this posters obsession with these two airlines comes from the fact that the airlines already serve GLA and not is his favourite local airport.
