Nice to see GLA in LCY's top ten, especially as some folk (mainly in aaug)
thought it would never work because it's come and gone previously.

Very happy to see this route doing well. Let's hope there are enough
business passengers flying to keep the yields healthy.

No reason why not, I wouldn't have thought.

The route from GLA to LCY.

Does GLA-LCY offer the same number of frequencies and seats on offer
each month? Load factors may be a better measure of comparison

I would have thought the obvious point is that airlines determine
frequency through their perception of demand and what is commercially
viable for them. Especially in this day and age if it didn't pay an
airline to provide the extra rotations you can guarantee they'll chop
them.

Shame Joe had to seek to compare the EDI and GLA services, like that's all
that matters in the world. I only mentioned it was nice to see GLA in LCY's
top ten because some people in aaug thought it would be short lived for some
unfounded reason. My point had nothing whatsoever to do with the EDI
services. When I was looking at the list I glanced at the major cities
listed below Glasgow and was pleased to see it up there in the context that
the decision to add GLA is obviously working for the airline.
