Under flight information. According to it there are two competing airlines on the route. Emirates and Air Scotland. Now that would make me laugh normally, however as somebody on the other side of the world might be looking at that page to help with travel plans it ain't no joke. Can anybody else spot any other crackers on that page. Somebody in BAA needs to sort it out.

However, maybe Air Scotland are going to start flights to DXB with the Tristar they're supposed to be getting - wouldn't surprise me tbh! (not that I'd ever pick 'em over EK!) Back to top colin.

Tristars, wonder if rumour or fact, not so long ago it was Globespan getting a large MD widebody. If they do get them and they change there schedule as often as they do with their European flights we can all look forward to a wonderfull selection of woldwide destinations fron Gla. Talking about that PIA story been quiet for a considerable time anybody any idea.

If it's true, then maybe they'll be heading up the road to Sharjah, or even the new Jebel Ali International when it open's in 2 or 3 years time.
