The FT article syas "In Scotland, BAA operates a £60m route development fund to attract new routes.

Recent successes include winning Emirates to open Dubai/ Glasgow , Continental Airlines to open New York (Newark)/Edinburgh and US Airways to open Philadelphia/ Glasgow.

The support is paid through discounted airport charges and financial support for marketing campaigns, normally across three years."

Is this in addition to the £6.8m route development fund operated by the Scottish Office, which presumably applies to all Scottish airports, BAA or not.
