Closure of Southampton - Amsterdam route
It is with regret that we announce, that after the 10th of August, ScotAirways will no longer be operating on the Southampton - Amsterdam route.
Any passengers booked to fly after this date are advised to contact our reservations department on 0870 60 60 707.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our passengers who have flown to and from Southampton and Amsterdam with us over the last 9 years. It has been our pleasure and we shall miss you all.
So the Scot Airways network is now down to ten daily rotations on two routes..... Or rather nine, as the timetable shows a morning LCY-EDI-LCY rotation by an Avro RJ? I thought this sort of muscle play had been long scrapped - when did they start using Cityjet on the EDI route?
Even with the additional Air France business on LCY-BHD, hardly enough work for four aircraft, let alone six (I understand that the 7th has been leased out to bmi regional).
