or go fly from GLA on a legacy airline.
I think we all may have to soon.

I think Prestwick is going to become a victim of FR's success actually.

FR are so big now that they can be regarded as a mainline carrier here in Europe. FR have been threatening PIK management of a pullout for years to keep their charges low, and with the breakup of BAA its only a matter of time before they start flying from GLA. I think you'll find FR are so big now they will have a change of policy and start flying from more mainline airports in the near future. The days of regional airports such as PIK, BVA etc are numbered.

There is now no need to upgrade the facilities at PIK, but clean toilets would be nice though.
