That’s a lot more Med flying than I am being led to believe is being announced any day now. If what I am hearing is what they actually do, it’s hardly worth bothering. And it is certainly not worthwhile upsetting Loganair and Emerald for.

I do wonder if easyJet’s main motivation here is keeping a foot on the heads of some upcoming rivals - which is exactly what they are trying to do at Belfast City with Emerald - and AGS have fallen for this with the lure of a tiny programme of Med routes that the airport feels it has to have to demonstrate progress to the local market?
