Why announce one route when we can announce two? 🤩

Our summer 2025 options just got even better, with @easyJet launching routes to Antalya and Reus, bringing you more flights on more days across the summer schedule!

Flights launch from June 2025, running twice a week.

@mcgregor2407 @EDI_Airport Did you get a free tortilla at least? 😂

[Fraser "Ben" Murdoch @weefraz1]

A boost for @EDI_Airport numbers in 2026 then...

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

Very pleased, after constructive discussions with partners, we have been able to agree to Glasgow hosting the Commonwealth Games in 2026. It will be scaled back compared to 2014 but will be a celebration of sporting achievement. Excited about Glasgow 2026. https://t.co/sGk3MxGxqj

@GeorgeNTravels Hopefully it's a catalyst for EK25/EK26 to return, at least.

[Fraser "Ben" Murdoch @weefraz1]

@gla_fly @GLA_Airport Yes, but it's Orlando Melbourne (MLB), 75 miles away from Disney World...

[Fraser "Ben" Murdoch @weefraz1]

With another addition to Edinburgh's long haul network, and assuming everything from S24 operates the same in S25, there will be 111 long haul departures per week from Edinburgh 😲

@AmericanAir will return with direct flights between Edinburgh and Philly in '25, providing another top connection to North America.

Aircraft are thirsty and burn lots of fuel, right?

Wrong.

The average fuel efficiency of air travel today is about 67 mpg per passenger. That makes it more fuel efficient than your drive to work. The best hit 100mpg/passenger.

How did aviation manage it?

A thread.

[Glasgow Airport ✈️ @GLA_Airport]

We are largely unaffected by the current global IT issues. At present a small number of airlines have moved to manual check-in and some retailers are only accepting cash payments.

Top class trolling by @wizzair by sending their #TeamHungary livery to @GLA_Airport on Saturday ahead of the #Scotland v #Hungary #Euro2024 match on Sunday. Well played 👏👏👏😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇭🇺⚽️

@GeorgeNTravels For me, priorities now in terms of route development should getting that 2nd EK back and improving our North America offering - NYC, Orlando, as well as Canada. I'd like to see MUC back properly too. I fear all of that is a long way off though... 2/2
