???????? I think the Southampton schedule quoted is this winter and Flybe have given up zero slots and in fact BE Amsterdam at BHX goes up from 5 daily to 7 daily as it did last winter. Flybe/VS/KLM/AF have to give up the BHX - CDG and AMS slots to other airlines outside of Skyteam/Connect/Flybe group and it appears it is from the start of the summer 2020 timetable.

If nobody is interested in these slots then they will be retained and I bet KL and AF would want to get their hands on some of them.
