it seems that INV lacks international connections . INV is one of the fastest growing places in the europe so could INV sustain a 3 x daily service to AMS ?

It comes up on mine when i roll over the code. I think if flybe based themselves there they could operate a twice daily route.

KLM used to operate to INV IIRC - the route was withdrawn as quickly as it was introduced though...

talking about starting big. That are at least 150 (3x F50) seats to fill each dayon a new route. once/twice daily (perhaps even 5/10x weekly) might be a good start, but I'm not too sure how the market is.

For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and ther

Absolutely no idea. I know it ceased in 1998 though. Service was once daily.

I meant that first it didn't have the automatic translation from code into name. Now it does.

Really? I thought it was pretty sleepy when I visited the town last year. I thought most of Scottish commerce and industry was either on the EDI-GLA axis or near ABZ.

Didn't Scot Airways operate the route at one point?

I think INV-AMS has potential. Once daily would probably be the best initial frequency since I imagine most traffic would be leisure or connecting passengers and not business passengers needing a day return facility

As mentioned, KLM UK did operate AMS-INV daily for a very brief period a few years ago, I believe it was with a F50. Was at about the same time they also operated into Sheffield (the first Sheffield airport, not DSA!).

Yes they did after KLM withdrew. However they also withdrew shortly after they started.....
