EasyJet Expands in Glasgow, BP Retreats | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

EasyJet’s big move into Glasgow—adding a seventh plane and launching new routes to Pisa, Sharm El Sheikh, Malta, and Krakow—is fuelled by booming Scottish travel demand and set to create 400 local jobs across aviation and tourism. Meanwhile, Greaves Sports, a Glasgow retail icon since 1930, is sold to Frasers Group, with hopes of keeping the Gordon Street store alive under the Greaves name. But in stark contrast, BP’s decision to offload its North Sea assets after 60 years has sparked alarm over job losses for 1,100 workers—and underscores the urgent need for a clear regional strategy balancing energy security, job protection, and the transition to renewables.
