Lots of speculation. Let’s hope something does transpire from LAX’s incentive. If an airline did take a punt on an EDI-LAX route or if other routes to North America were to start or even the Far East (return of emirates) and the sectors recovery continues, would the airport need to revisit and consider a further extension to the terminal building with more gates/air bridges? An LAX route would almost certainly require a wide body aircraft to make the trip? Unsure if a 321XLR would reach? The current set up for international arrivals at most gates is far from ideal when departing or arriving pax cannot de-plane or board at same time due to activity at other gates. It can be carnage if you arrive into gates 1 through 6. Could the airport re-develop gates on the pier and add bridges? All very hypothetical, however, with the prospect of returning to pre-pandemic pax numbers looking more probable, another extension could be required.
