There has been a bit of talk in Scotland of the GLA thing - Glasgow city council are offering financil inducements to MyTravelLite to set up there - I've heard £0.5 - 1million - don't know if this is per year or not.

They are also reputed to have had "talks" with BAA about it - these never seem to result in anything though! - BAA Scottish airports claimed in last weekend's sunday herald that they were in "advanced negociations" with 9 airlines about services to 15 int destinations from EDI, GLA, and ABZ, so I suppose this could include MyTravelLite.

I wouldn't have thought MAN would be attractive given the news earlier this week from bmibaby and the presence of easy up the road at LPL. In comparison in Scotland they would only have competition from Air Scotland, which has had plenty in the way of teething problems, and flyglobespan at PIK. Both of these outifts don't offer particularly frequent flights either.
