Interesting to see the continued criricism of BA , it should not be forgotten that BAs buy-in is crucial re the Heathrow RW3 debate and yet here we have an airline that in many experts eyes on here is going backwards.
HAL keep banging on about domestic connectivity but in my view the only airline that can join the dots and provde this is BA.
Are they fit for purpose in that regard?
Doubtful
And what of the others ?
EZY if indeed they do decide to enter the fray will cherry pick. It will be CDG AMS FRA etc NOT
Leeds Teesside, Londonderry etc
FLYBE are unable to afford the fees and that leaves
BMI and Eastern who currently are both niche carriers. Niether has expressed any desire to operate from LHR.
I think Davies, Various MPs and indeed some in the media still still look upon BA as some sort of BOAC with VC10S, an airline that's Queen of the skies.
The last few months would suggest otherwise.
