Glasgow, as Scotland's transatlantic gateway, would be more likely to benefit from such support." 'Support' that might alienate folk who live on the east coast.

So we can all say now that there is NO CATEGORISATION of flights from the airports. No, because... The current Scottish Executive fund is, I believe, for European flights only, but Nicol Stephen indicated that he was looking for ways to extend the fund to cover long-haul ... a move which, he claimed, would almost certainly benefit GLA exclusively. ...suggests that some sort of social engineering has been going on. -- Adrian I've warned you about this kind of trolling.

But unless you're starting your journey in Dubai or Lahore then you have to change flights somewhere, so why not change onto a flight direct to Edinburgh? If we want to see improvements to Scotland's range of scheduled European carriers, I don't see the harm in promoting the connecting options through hubs like Frankfurt, Paris etc in addition to the longer haul carriers such as Emirates and Continental. These services rely as much on connecting passengers as they do point-to-point. Scotland would be connected to fewer European cities if a certain percentage of pax on these flights weren't connecting from other destinations on the airline's network. It's good that we have an ever-expanding choice of airlines in Scotland. There's no right or wrong way. Correct. There's no difference between connecting in FRA, CDG, AMS, HEL etc and connecting in DXB, except that the former hubs have direct flights to Edinburgh, which is what we're talking about. Thread drift is normal under the circumstances? Surely YOU aren't dictating what can or cannot be discussed? Though not ))) Except there was no thread drift.
