This looks good.

Next year we will have a based Globespan 777 as well as the daily EK 773 at GLA.

Well, they better be financial for a scrap. Taking eJ on on such a route will see a major war... the orange rag to the proverbial bull!

[GoEDI]

By all means give LGW a shot, by why on Earth would you want to touch STN?! There's no contest IMO.

[GustyOrange]

I agree. STN would be lunacy due to EZY and nedair from PIK. LGW would make sense.

STN would be madness.

EZY have concentrated their Gatwick operation out of EDI which means that BA have no competition on the GLA - LGW route (which is consistently full)

LGW would make sense and would no doubt prove to be very profitable

That's excellent news for GSM. Does anyone know when they are starting up the domestic flights? Gatwick would be an ideal domestic base to fly to.

[jabird]

My money would be on LGW. If they announced STN, I'd want to double or nothing on them withdrawing it as quickly as they pulled off ORY.

Meanwhile, LCY also remains vacant for GLA pax - for now?

Is BMI Regional not starting up London City soon?

Glasgow is mentioned in this article in yesterdays evening standard.

I know GSM have slots in STN from May and LGW from October. They will start STN-PRG-STN and then move to LGW in October - from both EDI and GLA. They will be using B737-600s.

[Take up the Hold]

I cannot see them starting Prague from Stansted in competition with EZY (and CSA?). I suspect that the 737-600s will be used on the rumoured route from GLA to LGW and, as yet unannounced, rumoured new routes from EDI.

They new EDI route has been announced, it is EDI-PRG. GLA will get two new routs announced between now and May.

Anyone old enough to remember Tommy

I don't know who to believe in this thread, but I'm afraid you don't sound as well informed.

I'm amazed that folk have not ID
tumbled

[allanmack]

Here's hoping for a GLA-LGW route! With only BA on the GLA - LGW route we need some competition. I have to go to LGW on Tuesday - BA - £358 return so now having to go from EDN on EZY at £80 return. No contest for the self-employed even though I live next door to PIK. Would be nice if FR started a PIK-LGW service.

[LBA]

My god your annoying Joe, just because someone says a flight might be going from GLA?

[PAPAROMA]

Sorry, I did not explain myself correctly. They are doing EDI-STN-EDI, EDI-PRG-EDI, EDI-STN-EDI with one B737-600 and then GLA-STN-GLA, GLA-PRG-GLA, GLA-STN-GLA. STN will be replaced by LGW in October as they cannot get the slots until then……just check out the slots!
