>>I take it you can prove this?<<

Can you disprove it?

>>GLA is always going to suffer from being on the wrong side of the city. It's much easier (although considerably further) for most people in central Scotland (including those from the eastern districts of the City of Glasgow) to get to EDI.<<

And vice-versa? One of the reasons why folk from Scotland's
eastern seaboard are reluctant to fly from GLA?

The main objection appears to be that EDI is more convenient/accessible and folk are determined not to be herded
past/from the perfectly useable airport in Scotland's economic heartland.

I feel sorry for the TX tourists who have to endure surface
transfers to Edinburgh, blissfully unaware it has an airport.

Most of all I feel sorry for the Scottish pax who have to endure
surface transport to GLA, PIK, MAN, NCL because the flights
and packages are not available more conveniently from EDI.
