FI
Another one to watch perhaps? Play entering the Glasgow market at the end of May. Icelandair do have slots at EDI for a daily service. A number of contributors on a Glasgow forum suggesting that FI moving along the M8 is a likely outcome.

Contextually for Scotland, it's the reinstatement of GLA-EWR to er....another airport 🏃♂️
The momentum and appetite to do business in the east is impressive! Well done EDI.

Wow, fantastic news. I stay over in the west and despite this coming at our expense, it's great to see! There's a huge amount of capacity from the US to Edinburgh in the summer but hopefully this shows that the demand is there.
I know Edinburgh is very seasonal but it would be great to see EWR upgauged to a 767 when it drops down to once daily in the winter, or even better bringing ORD or IAD year round. Wishful thinking perhaps for this winter but it's early days.

TK - Easter 23
Turkish starting to make some aircraft changes for the up-coming Easter getaway. 1st April, A333 operating. More to follow I suspect given the price of economy seats on certain dates.

US Pre-Clearance
As mentioned by other contributors, EDI do appear to be pushing ahead with a genuine attempt to obtain US Pre-Clearance. S25 is the suggested start time if they succeed. Finance is in place for the application with detailed plans being drawn up for a redevelopment of the terminal to house the TSA area.

What's the financial benefit to the airport in doing this? With the best will in the world the terminal is already way too small for the traffic it handles in summer.
