Well easily £114 with easyjet, with 23kg hold bag and seats round trip. Not sure the carmel wafer and tea are quite worth the extra £150 or so

not everyone flying to GLA wants hold luggage included so the easyJet fare was for a small onboard bag only. Food and drink shouldn't bother most travellers on an hour flight

But most business passengers want early flights in and late flights out. You add the price of the hotel and food into the price model with EZY and it is the same.

Not just ANY caramel wafer, that's a Scottish Tunnocks Caramel Wafer!

Did you know we consume 5m per day? (well, not me personally)

Yeah the do, mainly operating Islay, Benbecula, Sumburgh, Kirkwall and Donegal.

I think it's a single ATR based, with 2 Twin Otters and 2 E145's

Its an ATR42-600 that is based at Glasgow, not an ATR72. The aircraft swaps each day in Kirkwall.

Jethros currently showing that they have 6 ATR72 - 600's passenger configuration currently in the fleet, with another 3 arriving end of Feb - Apr 2024, so maybe they are
based elsewhere around the network but none at Glasgow then.

Credit to @SeanM1997 as always

Loganairs pso route Benbeclua - Stornoway not for sale for s24, PSO tender is awaiting the results. But suggests that these airports could *potentially* see a new airline

Tbh can't really see who else will operate it other than Loganair. Will be interested to see what others were on the tender

Yeh must be Eastern, only other option. Just can't see them winning it in a million years. But with the world nowadays anything is possible. I'm sure the passengers will look forward to their legendary on time performance.

You would need to be able to prove you can fulfill the contract i.e. be an airline with an AOC, which isn't happening for Summer 24.

What's the idea of a PSO that operates once a week?

CAA stats

Looking at CAA data I see that Loganair is doing better now than pre-pandemic in terms of passenger numbers but with only a moderate increase in flights compared to 2019:



perhaps linked to the change in aircraft type:
