LCC’s are far more susceptible to taking incentives to operate from sub-par locations than full service carriers who offer more than one class LCC service.

LHR is not a LCC airport, BFS is. Until BFS is not a dump I find it very hard to see why any non-LCC would put their higher fare paying passengers through the carnage. Its a recipe for complaints.

BFS needs new infrastructure in the flavour of proper premium ground services eg. consistent priority security, a decent lounge (Causeway is terrible and too busy at peak times) and then the part they can’t buy easily - efficient transport links to the countries biggest population centres.

IMO in comparison to somewhere like LHR, BFS is a truly awful place to travel through.
