I suppose if you have to fly long haul it's your only daily service, with BA not flying to LHR every day.
I remain mystified about the restart of the Zurich flight. I assumed that this almost entirely carried inbound tourists, but with the hotels, holiday lets etc unavailable, where are they going?

Disappointing to see EK now moved restart back to 1st Sept. GLA restart delayed and reduced. Qatar from the start of July will remain the best east bound international connection hub for those who need to fly and be somewhere.

As business across the world like in Asia and China starts to pick up, and the economy’s in Europe restart ahead of ours then this will restart some level of business travel requirements for people and goods will be need transportation. I am not saying it will be at similar levels for a while but working in company that works globally there is a need to deploy teams with boots on the ground going forward. Don’t just look insular to domestic travel or tourism got to look broader IMO.
far too much negativity around at present.....

Four of the seven BE Q400s that have been stored at EDI since early March have been re-registered to their leasing company NAC Aviation. Two repositioned to Weeze yesterday and I expect the other two will follow in due course.

Edinburgh to Rotterdam year round
Transavia are to convert its Edinburgh - Rotterdam from seasonal to year-round, operating 2x weekly flights in Winter 2020.
Additionally, the route will resume on 2 July 2020 with 3x weekly flights, converting to 4x weekly from 31 August 2020

The best Scotland can see on long haul is core routes protected. Park any fantasies about twice daily EDI or thrice daily GLA for a year or so at least. A load of the schedules you are seeing are placeholders as the airlines literally have little idea about what demand will be. BA don’t know whether the A380 and B744 fleet will even go back into service! ( 42 aircraft all in for starters!)

I believe Poland has closed the border again is the reason for the Warsaw cancellation not the downturn in demand From Gov.uk
Flights between Poland and the UK are suspended until at least 30 June. From 17 June flights permitted between Poland and most members of the European Economic Area and Switzerland, apart from the United Kingdom, Sweden and Portugal. Other international flights remain suspended until 30 June

EDI has retweeted a story from the Scotsman that Norwegian will restart from both OSL and CPH to both EDI and Gatwick from July 1st

I know much could happen before next summer but Jet2 appear to have made several increases. But what puzzles me is they have the normal 6 based every day except tuesday which has 5 (and I know 1 has a maintenance check hence why there is 5) and Sunday which currently shows 8 based morning departures. Unless major expansion to come or flights to be moved around that seems weird.
Edit: Also Lanzarote is showing 3x weekly on the outbound and 5x weekly on the inbound (with Tuesday and Friday being the new flight days) but both those days are not bookable at the moment. Is this possibly a glitch or more expansion?

Loganair CEO
Interesting webcast:
https://www.anna.aero/2020/06/15/30-...key-questions/
Loganair CEO gives some interesting insight to why they pulled the Manchester and Cardiff Services but I am not convinced that his reasoning is sound with respect to the difference between EDI-MAN and GLA-MAN. (To restart).
i wonder which airport he is referring too that are commercially out of touch??
EDI not directly mentioned as good or bad....
anyone got some further insight?
