Just about all the major UK charter airlines are now operating a route or two out of EDI this year, even Excel! 🙂
However, Monarch is the only one with an aircraft based at EDI and is the dominating charter airlines at EDI this summer.

BAA does not have the facilities or hangar space at EDI for
major aircraft basing..hence the reason why BAA sent tour operators and their airlines elsewhere from day one… :confused:

Another reason why EDI does not have regular long-haul charter, is the fact that aircraft are based elsewhere. Not EDI’s fault, nor the pax, they have no choice.. 😡
