Nothing particularly sensational in this as most if not all EU airlines will be
given approval if they so wish.
It is what is being rumoured about the slots for such flights which is
interesting (let alone the aircraft to fly the routes).
It has been claimed in a Bloomberg interview that WW stated that EU
flights will start as soon as they can (business only?) but one of the
unsubstantiated rumours is that Frankfurt slots (and others) might be
come from flybe (I think they have at least seven pairs 3 BHX, 3 MAN
and SOU).
This sounds a reasonable rumour rather than reducing LHR-FRA and
I was wondering if anyone on here has heard about this?
My angle is purely as a BHX local and the persistent rumours that
BHX-FRA, MXP, STR CDG etc could be dropped soon. Slots for MXP,
CDG and FRA would be worth something wouldn't they?
