Fresh route lets passengers Goa direct to India

Glasgow Airport is spreading its wings with what is believed to be Scotland's first direct flight to India, to be launched next year by Thomas Cook Airlines.
The airport's largest charter airline will operate a return service to Goa during the Easter holidays next April. The move is understood to be aimed at gauging potential demand for developing the route.
The news comes as a further boost after budget carrier Jet2 announced it would launch a base at Glasgow for European flights next summer, creating 150 jobs, as The Scotsman revealed last month. Glasgow has lost nearly one in ten of its passengers over the last year because of the recession and the collapse of a series of airlines, including Flyglobespan.
