The -800's are coming this Spring and will be GLA based.
The -400 is being leased from Travel Service in Prague according to 'CAA Official Records' and will also be GLA based operating to AGP and PMI every day.
Then there are the -300's wish they operate and also the two Channel one's as well in EDI
What about the -600's ? applications have been made to LGW and STN to operate from GLA on domestics with B736 124y.

I did read of 767s for Glasgow longhaul,a stop gap til the 787s arrive. Perhaps a DC10 instead?
Think they intend to take the Canadian flights in house,currently subbed to Air Transat.

"Infact, it was B777s they were intending on aquiring as a stop-gap till the B787s from EDI and GLA.
I believe the Scottish TS flights would most likely be taken in-house."
ALL GSM longhaul ops will operate from GLA.

The Air Transat flights currently operate from EDI too,so don't think it would be any different when Flyglobespan use their own aircraft.
Back to the aforementioned DC-10---any source for this story?

I cant see the the canada flights being taken inhouse, as Air Transat sell these flights in there own right from Canada to the UK, and Globespan are the sales agent for most of the UK - Canada flights. Remeber Globespan tried longhaul flights once before with Excalibur and a DC10, and they did not change the Canadian flights to Excalibur. Also the Air Transat flights fly to quite a few UK airports inc CWL, BFS, NCL and EXT. I personally think the longhaul flights will be to non-canadian destination, i heard rumors of LA and Boston along with Australia and South Africa.

They were selling SYD back in the late 90s flying from Glasgow on Excalibur, from memory it was going to be once a week, but then Excalibur went belly up, and that was that, if they were to launch a weekly flight similar to what Airtours and Britannia had out of MAN & LGW at the right price i think it would sell, not sure about S.Africa though.
