Interesting. I had not realised BMI was still doing it in the early naughties. I remember it from when Edinburgh Airport used to produce a printed timetable of all flights and I am pretty sure that you could book the EDI-GLA sector at that time.
Albeit not scheduled but I have done PIK-GLA on BA which was quite amusing.

I realise this may be something of a moot point now, but...
The other route, if you don't want to go via Haymarket, is to take the tram to Edinburgh Park, then change to the slow train from there to Glasgow. You can get off at Partick and hop into a Joe Baxi - it's barely more than the bus fare from Queen St. You don't get the swanky new trains, but you do get a scenic view of Coatbridge.
These trains have a destination of Helensburgh or Milngavie, the latter of which you can have great fun trying to pronounce.
