New FlyGlobespan routes STN-TFS & STN-GVA
Things are happening with FlyGlobespan "Scotland Airline" with new daily routes from London Stansted to Tenerife (from 1st Nov) & Geneva (from 22nd Dec).
Could this be a new base for them??? Bit of a surprise move if you ask me!

looking at the timetables, looks like there are going to base a couple of aircraft at STN for these flights. I think there operating them to utilise the aircraft when the scottish winter routes are cut back, ie GLA-PFO, PMI, FAO & NCE and EDI-BCN, FAO, NCE, PMI, PRG & FCO.
Too me it makes sense, and give some of the "London" lowcost airlines a run for there money, as having flown GSP, EZY & FR, its has definately got a better product.

EZY are just about to give them a run for there money out of GLA .
Big announcement coming soon . 5 new routes inthe winter ,more next summer.
Rumour is 5 airbus at GLA next summer.
Ive heard it all before as well , many times . I have strong info' to make me think its gonna happen this time .

Totally agree with previous: links to mainland europe out of Glasgow on scheduled services continues to be hideous. Why do all business people prefer to fly via LHR on the shuttle? Continues to baffle me! There remains no direct daily link into CDG for heavens sake - must be the only UK airport without it!
Meanwhile Glopespan STILL are mucking people around on summer services. Have a freind coming down to Malaga August - outbound and inbound flight have been changed.

It looks like Easyjet now have STN-GVA on sale as well (twice daily), although I could not find anything in their news section (?).
Probably a bit provocative of Flyglobespan to start a route linking two EZY bases...
I think competing against the 'bigger boys' is a totally different game for GSM ...

EZY vs GSM
Fly Globespan have some very cheap return flights from STN to either GLA or EDI. With prices cheaper than Easyjet on these routes GSM offer a much higher service. One of the main benefits is allocated seating which saves all the hassle with the likes of FR and EZY.

Yes,but what you have to remember is that EZY include most of the extra charges in the quoted price,but GSM don't. Take it to the bottom line,and there isn't much difference.
