First inbound GLA flight departs PHL at 20:30 on the 14th May arriving GLA at 08:25 on the 15th as 'US563.' Return to PHL departs GLA as 'US564' at 12:45 arriving in PHL at 15:30.

Yes good news Blimps ;-) Another snippet of information fresh from the Gulf area is that Etihad Airways are considering GLA-Abu Dhabi for "next year". Although they are new to me they already serve LHR and LGW and would have connections to Karachi, Mumbai, Bangkok, Dhaka, Manila, Lahore, Kuala Lumpur, Delhi, Jakarta and Bahrain.

More on the airline here: www.etihadairways.com Clive Where did you hear this Clive? A Travel Agent friend of my sister in Bahrain. It could be mince and I'd just keep it in the back of our minds for now but then again the source has no axes to grind other than arranging UK ex-pats travel to and fro the region and came out with it unprompted. Etihad are seen as the easyJet of the Gulf, apparently, and they are obviously after the leisure and VFR traffic rather than high end business pax. A bit like Gulf Traveller who are starting at BHX. Didn't I hear that Etihad were looking at MAN a while back too? Another thing I noticed - the Travel City Direct 'Jumbo' 747 Sanford Orlando flights are now extended through to October 2005 after starting with the school holidays on 26 June. This year and last they only went June/July.

Yes, snippets from elsewhere suggest PIA have 'missed the boat?' I saw that. Just one person who thinks EK will have captured the entire Pakistan market. I am pretty sure there is room for PK for the direct Scottish/Pakistani market alone. Those who still travel PIA via MAN and LHR for a start. Emirates have a lot more on offer besides Pakistan.

I think they have a fleet of 330's and have placed monster orders for 777 and a few 380 ? I'd be delighted if we get Etihad or Qatar!!!

They didn't have much to say though. www.glasgowinternationalairport.net Back to top Fraser Guest Posted: Thu Nov 18, 2004 11:18 pm    Post subject: Re: GLA-PHL Re-Starts 15th May 2005 Quote: Another snippet of information fresh from the Gulf area is that Etihad Airways are considering GLA-Abu Dhabi for "next year".

My friend who works for lastminute.com says they are an extremely popular airline for great fares to south-east asia and India for people in Britain with relatives there. Very good fares apparently.

Perhaps my source meant relatively speaking? I see they do LHR-AUH for £289 which is pretty cheap though they are clearly not just after leisure pax as their aircraft have 3 class configurations with fancy food and all.
