Also, I'm sure that slots are readily available at GLA - for routes such as CDG, LCY (LGW would be nice, but slim chance, I feel) and DUB.

And what may happen after CO jump ship - will DL add GLA to their network? They already do EDI-JFK(?)/ATL several times weekly, I think.
OK, I read that wrong. I thought you were saying it'd not be too expensive for an airline to operate GLA-EDI which at the time I thought sounded a bit insane Then again a short hop GLA-EDI would add an extra segment and 750 miles to your itinerary... Let's convince AF that it's a good idea
