So 100% of the passengers that use EDI are business travellers so aiding the Scottish economy by helping to sell products and services overseas thereby enhancing Scottish employment and no-one on an EDI scheduled service is going abroad for leisure purposes?

Let's look at some of these 100% business destinations ex-EDI bearing in mind the small charter programme that we've been told about:
Alicante, Paphos, Dubrovnik, Dalaman, Palma, Tenerife, Ibiza, Malaga, Menorca, Olbia

I would imagine all these are cyclical in nature i.e. high frequency in summer and low frequency in winter. Not unlike a charter programme that exists, perhaps, at Newcastle which we have to remember has your implicit criticism of the passengers spending overseas.
