This has been a fascinating discussion. I remember Prestwick in the glory days of the 1960s - large check-in areas for BOAC, Pan Am, Air Canada, SAS and KLM and, I think, a third party handler (Scotia?). However,I will stop digressing. In my experience "route development funds", "marketing support" etc do not work in the long term if the route isn't properly viable because no airport operator can pay enough to keep an unviable route going for ever In that spirit I'd like to offer three predictions 1/ Wizz will stay at GLA and probably increase operations. 2/ AC Rouge will, within three years, either be gone from Scotland or flying from GLA. 3/ Also within 3 years the LH DUS at GLA will either have gone altogether or returned to EDI.
