Flying A318s out of LCY against ERJ190s would not be wise, they're tricky to make money with and cost a whole lot more to operate than the Embraers.

When BMI forcibly moved their Heathrow based B737 crews to Cardiff, there was nearly a strike. Given this is essentially VLM, Belgian registered Fokker 50s and that the UK VLM bases at MAN and LPL...
