Only 4 years ago Glasgow had seasonal weekly non stops from both Vancouver and Calgary. Montreal too for one season. WestJet's withdrawal to Calgary and Transat's abandonment of western Canada leaves big gaps in service. Even alternatives such as Icelandair ( once daily from Vancouver and Edmonton) are now not so frequent in a shorter season. No one in western Canada wants a transfer at Toronto, recently voted North America's worst transfer airport. I'd rather give Heathrow and Amsterdam a miss too. Maybe Dublin will be the gateway?
