Puts me in mind a wee bit of the days when Air UK routed the AMS service via EDI and BA operated a CDG-GLA-ABZ link, both way back in the 80s with short 1-11s.
I am that old!
Not the only one, I remember flying on both those services..
Currently travelling to London fairly frequently and favouring the train over the plane, was starting to get T5 BA fatigue and find I can be more productive in a day of travelling involving the train than flying.
