Stated to be for Level, Vueling, and BA LGW. In other words the Cheap Fare (supposedly) parts of the business. Not IB or BA LHR. I don't think they could be for BA LHR anyway as unless I am mistaken they are not compatible with all-containerised baggage there.

So drawing a line between the two different areas of the business, A320s (presumably) for the mainstream brands, Max for the cheapos - narrower fuselage, more squashed toilets, etc.

Notably, although both the IAG website and WW himself have specifically stated those Low Cost brands are the ones the aircraft are for, the mainstream press have all looked up IAG and said it is BA, Iberia and Aer Lingus. Which just shows how much credibility the mainstream media have.
