I haven't seen this anywhere here but Loganair have announced GLA-LDY-GLA will commence on the 28th of October operated by a SAAB 340B and a SAAB 2000s (On on Sundays)

Loganair will also be taking-over Donegal - Glasgow from Stobart from later this month with the SF34

Only leaves the Donegal - Dublin service for the Stobart AT43s

I'm surprised they did come back to LDY for that very reason! I would expected them to see how GLA-CFN develops first.

I’d say they’ve returned to LDY for more than just GLA in the long run. I can see this going to a daily Saab 2000, maybe even twice daily on some days. MAN or even BHX could be added in between rotations to GLA.

That's my point of view anyway. if the 340B was upgauged to the 2000 I doubt double daily would be possible, single most certainly. As for the the MAN/BHX stuff, I doubt they would pick up BHX as that is a BMI Regional base making A/C and crew swaps easier. Manchester is a real possibility considering they are already a significant operator at Manchester.
