Presumably throwing darts after all the other dropped routes. Palermo mid winter is a bold choice. Vueling Orly and FR BVA will only end one way.

Personally I'm glad they are trying new things, if there's not the uptake then it is the use or or lose it event. Not everyone wants Tenerife style weather.

Airlines use methods to determine underserved routes, data from connections etc.

Though the darts at a board gave me a chuckle, one can only wonder if Glasgow airport had darts, threw them or even what in the game

And the point of this comment is...?

[Porrohman]

The EGPH Forum website has been suspended. Is this temporary or permanent?

Really useful new page from EDI about routes that are currently flying post Covid, what is returning next week and those returning in the next 30 days and coming soon.

It would be really useful if it was up to date and accurate. It suggests that both Milan and Munich are restarting within 30 days, presumably with easyjet. However the Easyjet website now shows neither route restarting until early December.

UA confirm that IAD-EDI, EWR-EDI and ORD-EDI will resume in Summer 2022.

Will they still be using the 757?

[GrahamK]

All showing as 757s in the booking engine.

Tremendous amount of transatlantic capacity from EDI next year. Overcapacity perhaps?

[Link Kilo]

With UA and DL not currently showing as operating to GLA in S22, the capacity between central Scotland and the USA in S22 will still be lower than in S19.

[Skipness One Foxtrot]

United expect a summer 2022 return to GLA.
I can't imagine it'll bounce right back unless the onboard mask mandate ends, too many folk not inclined to wear one for that long IMHO.

I always thought Air Canada were scheduled to operate 4 x weekly YYZ - EDI but noticed a tweet from them that its daily. When did that happen?

No they don't: "United won't fly previous routes from Newark to Manchester and Newark to Glasgow in the U.K. and San Francisco to Dublin, Quayle said."

Don't know if or when it was formally announced, but it's been on sale for months - long before Westjet announced their competing service.

[inOban]

There will be a lot of postponed family visits being rescheduled for S22.

Don’t think theres any doubt about it…
Expect more changes over next 12m

Oh that's contrary to other media today!! Thanks for sharing, what a shame, but not a surprise alas.

[willy wombat]

I suppose that theoretically leaves GLA uncontested for JetBlue.

[tictack67]

I make that 7 destinations in the north America continent by 5 carriers.

[willy wombat]

Just a shame it’s not a more pleasant airport to pax through.
