The airport press releases seem to say up to 16 flights a week to Glasgow (see: link, for example). It would be nice if they upped frequency to double daily direct flights on weekdays this winter (not just Mon & Fri, which could probably stand 3 a day) on the back of the latest RyanAir difficulties. I stand to be corrected, but on FlyBe website, I can only see 8 flights/week there, and eight flights/wk back - not quite the usual understanding of 16 weekly flights!

To fill in some more detail on the spring/summer 18 programme:-
At the start of the summer period, flights to Antwerp begin on March 26, and resume to Caen on March 31. Prague services increase to daily for the rest of the summer.
The third E195 comes on line for the Spring Holiday weekend (May 26/28). Milan, Dubrovnik and Zadar return, Dublin becomes 3x daily on weekdays and Glasgow 2xdaily on weekdays. Perpignan, Reus and Venice do not return and Zadar is only 1x week. The other E195 routes operate at the same or greater frequency compared with 2017.
The ATR72 services are not yet all on sale. One morning rotation is as yet unallocated for every day, and one evening rotation still unallocated every day except Saturday. Presumably Rennes (currently showing 8 flights) will account for the evening slot as per last year, and the morning slot could be taken by additional Groningen and Caen flights (currently shown as 6 and 4 respectively) - unless there is something else in the pipeline.
This is not an exhaustive survey but hopefully covers the principal features. Welcome anyone else to make additions !

I think it's just a glitch on the on-line timetable as far as GLA is concerned as it's bookable on their website at 12 x weekly for the summer through to 9th September.

A series of connections over SEN have appeared on the Flybe online timetable, in addition to the Groningen connections which were announced last week. Some examples: Manchester to Antwerp, Lyon Prague and Vienna. Dublin to Antwerp, Caen,and Lyon. Glasgow to Lyon. Perhaps there is more to come, as it all looks somewhat patchy at present.
I suppose its anyones guess as to what uptake there will be of these opportunities. SEN will presumably have to provide transfer facilities, so its not a cost free facility.

FlyBe flights now listed until end January, a couple of changes noticed: Caen now stays after summer, as does the Milan.
Who knows after January?

It looks like they have simply extended the summer schedule through into the winter without any frequency reductions. That includes daily to PRG. It would not be surprising to see some pruning of frequency of some routes at a later date especially the lean months of November and January.
