What this means in terms of any specualted ATA services to Scotland remains to be seen, it may mean the sight of 753's in CO colours though?

ATA are seriously struggling right now, and unless the situation improves they will not be launching any transatlantic flights. Far too risky. As for CO 757-300s in scotland, they might make the occasional visit, possibly to edinburgh. Glasgow tends to be 767, which I believe has a greater capacity than the 757-300, so its unlikely they would be used to GLA. Unless CO needs the 767 to launch flights deep into europe... Your best bet might be Edinburgh, although the -300 has a habbit of getting stuck in the mud at edinburgh :P -- regards, G Coates www.taxiwayalpha.com Back to top Fraser Guest Posted: Sat Nov 06, 2004 5:21 pm    Post subject: Re: Continental buys ATA's 753's Stand corrected....
