Why should this airline be added?
Established in 2002 in Edinburgh, this airline operated scheduled flights from their bases at Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool and Aberdeen to destinations in Europe, North America, North Africa and South Africa. They also operated some of the first low-cost transatlantic flights from Liverpool, to JFK with a 757-200 and then to Hamilton, which was joined by flights from Manchester and Doncaster to Hamilton. They also started flights from West of Ireland Airport to JFK and Boston using a 757-200, but when they didnβt have one available, they used a 737-800 with stops in Reykjavik or Bangor, Maine. Manchester to Cape Town was also another route established for a brief time as well as Glasgow to Orlando. In December 2009, the airline went bust and was liquidated the next year.This airline would be a fantastic addition for players like me who would love to operate βwhat if?β airlines and scenarios. I would love to see this in full one day in-game
