I thought EDI had a daily 757 service except a short time in the winter ?

It does, and I don’t think GLA is daily either, 6x weekly for winter.
Sorry GLA767. :rolleyes:

Now it seems FR want ‘backhanders’ from the UK tourist boards!

If they don’t give they won’t get any in return. 😉

Not dirt cheap, necessarily but I dont expect to have to take out a second mortgage for a short hop on a Jetstream, ridiculous!

Exaggeration! 😮 Our judgement has been clouded by the likes of FR selling 1p flights, and all Locos in general have brought fares down, it wasn’t too long ago that almost all airfares were around Eastern’s level. Pre Loco boom.

I have just priced up a flight from LBA to Southampton. The fares are ludicrously high. I appreciate that the airline is filling a gap in the market and I think its good we have an airline supporting regional domestic routes but really! There fares are ridiculous, I will have to take BA from MAN-SOU as they are much, much cheaper.

Get real Eastern!

They are an airline geared entirely towards the business traveller. I bet for most of the travellers it’ll be their employers not themselves who have paid the airfare. What do you mean get real? They serve their targeted market well, clearly you are not their targeted market! 😉

Hold on a minute, I’ve just re-read:

Flybe. will offer new daily services from Liverpool to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Belfast City

It’s Doomed, what good is a daily flight LPL-EDI and GLA? It’ll have to be 2x daily at least!

serve to unite these dynamic business and vibrant leisure communities

They won’t be getting any business traffic with those frequencies. 😉

Good luck to them! 🙂

The only digital pic I have of a B757. Before I discovered zoom on the camera. 😮 😉

Who said the didnt?

No-one. No-one said they did either, so I did.
