I fully agree with the analysis of AeroMad.
Some city routes from Gatwick serve business and the lesiure traveller alike.
The Scottish routes and Jersey do provide some useful feed as well as point to point for people in the catchment area. Also why should BA give all those passengers on a plate to Easyjet!!
I do regret the loss of Manchester from next March. I wonder how it is doing over the winter months. It has better timings on most days at the moment. I know quite a number of people use the first flight down from Manchester to connect with BA long Haul and the 1025 up to Manchester to take them home. Use it myself a lot for point to point. I know economic reality says it will go but a pity nobody else will pick it up. Does anyone know how the route is performing at moment or any indication of a change of mind? I know I should move on!!
