It is direct, via LHR, That's what "direct" means, one ticket :p

You'tr thinking of "non stop". No reason VS wouldn't pick it up again but BA? 99.99% unlikely.

Does direct not mean same flight number not same ticket.

Direct means one aircraft with the same flight no. It may stop on the way. Any change of plane does not count as direct.

Not true. Direct means it is one flight number. It may involve a change of aircraft, however where it does, the connection is guaranteed. i.e if the inbound flight is delayed, the second flight will be held at the airport until it arrives.

Icelandair daily
 

Icelandair increase to daily from September.

Excellent. Was interesting to see that EZY at EDI had almost carried same no. monthly pax to KEF compared to long established FI KEF service from GLA and thats before WOW start.

Yes, a massive increase suddenly - up 35% on March 2015. EDI-KEF saw a 96% load factor whilst GLA-KEF was around 76%.

On the other hand, Icelandair have premium economy, carry cargo and are generally much pricier than easyJet.

.....not forgetting that there is also now a KEF service from ABZ aswell!

Love Iceland, but the growth in flights from around the UK is nothing short of incredible over the last few years.

KEF - Is being marketed as a one stop cheap way to get to the US as well as a short stay holiday destination! Doing a DXB mid Atlantic!!

Air France launching GLA-CDG in March 2016 with daily A318, morning departure
And now appears to be year round with same once daily service throughout although listed as EQV for aircraft so presume same mix of 318/9
Now just need twice daily for better connections

FR starting SOF-GLA on 07 September bringing forward the previous start date of end of October. SXF-GLA will also increase from 4 to 5 a week during September/October prior to going 6 weekly in November.

Are there many Bulgarians in Glasgow/West of Scotland? There are far more Romanians and even Slovakians than I have expected. Lithuanians there seem to be a number of too in addition to the Poles.

This week has seen a quartet of new routes starting from GLA. Thomas Cook to Almeria, Barrhead Travel/ BACF charter to Genoa, Flybe to Newquay and Air Transat to Montreal.

777 operating one of today's BA LHR-GLA-LHR services.

AeroMexico has further expanded codeshare partnership with KLM, as it launched its own Mexico City – Amsterdam service last week (28MAY16). The expanded codeshare service sees AM code being placed on Amsterdam-Glasgow-Amsterdam flights.

Delta to JFK
 

From next spring. No brainer.

Nice new option but I would have slight concerns about North East US over capacity in the summer rather than it being a 'no brainer'. Suspect US/AA to PHL will be first to go...

AA/US will need to up their game with their TATL 757s as they have the weakest onboard product by far.

Delta heads n toes above UA or AA product wise, great news for GLA, good conx too. Seems to be looking year round 2018

It has been confirmed from source that new DL JFK is indeed summer only with last flight westbound Thur 28th Sept 2017.
