However would I be correct in stating that Gran Canaria is a new route for Gla. If my knowledge is correct has it not been a monopoly of Pik over the last few years. If it is correct and I may be corrected on this, it is another new route for Gla. Great.

Still good news about the new GSM flights along with Paphos and Lanzarote though.

No unlike the famous St Maartens. Sitting on a beach, Pina Colada in one hand and the scanner in the other... I feel a booking coming on !

Yes I've done all that at Lanzarote (no scanner though - just enjoyed the mystery of the next European charter flight to punctuate the day). Rhodes is similar too.

I was amazed when landing there just how many people were on the beach under the approach. Not my kind of holiday though, I have to say. -- Adrian Back to top Allen McLaughlin Guest Posted: Mon Nov 01, 2004 2:12 am    Post subject: Re: Gran Canaria Quote: Oh you sad spotter If that's sad, then yes I am !
