Philadelphia – Edinburgh eff 28MAR21 Previously not covered on Airlineroute, 787-8 replaces 757, 1 daily
I wonder if this will actually happen.....

Seems to be a flight from Enfidha today. Is the agricultural sector bringing in workers from Tunisia? Would help their economy.

Apparently it’s going back out as CA606 to Xi’an at 15:30 (according to FR24 and Facebook)

Eurowings also return today with a 2x weekly Cologne service.

Presumably IAD is also cancelled for the summer?

[Plane mad 134]

Not reported anywhere so far. Routesonline reports the equivalent Dublin B757 seasonal service is cancelled, therefore fair to assume likewise for EDI.

Also do not see any indication of the Delta Boston route for this season, I thought that route was successful last time out or was it always for the chop this season?

EDI<>IAD/ORD/BOS were on sale for S20 but were ditched in April. (sources below). Time will tell if any of them return.

Loganair

Anyone heard of and when Loganair will fly from Edinburgh again? See the have restarted flight at other Scottish airports.

[Plane mad 134]

Loganair will start up Southampton 6x weekly from the 15th of June, with the other routes gradually resuming and increasing through July, August and September.

[Plane mad 134]

Also Edelweiss will restart Zurich tommorow with flights being 2x weekly on A320. Good to see more European carriers returning.

It will be fascinating if someone, who presumably works at the airport, can offer some insight as to approximately how many passengers the assorted reinstated flights are carrying. I am personally bemused as to who would be travelling at the moment.

Unlike other countries who are only allowing their citizens in, anyone with EU/EEA papers can enter the UK and then quarantine (from next week)

The only route I know for certain is doing well and that's the KLM Amsterdam service. It is constantly almost at full capacity hence the upgauge to a daily E190 instead of E175.
