It's a common way to burn off Avios from the rest of the year. Palma with small kids, Malaga for the Canary Wharf DINKYs (Double Income No Kids Yet), Ibiza for ... well, you all know what.
I wonder what CityFlyer will do for Club, given that Mainline at Heathrow are doing no catering at all. As the LCY Med flights have always offered a small meal and drinks in Y, the seating in the E190 is the same, there is no lounge at LCY, and many are probably Silver or higher anyway, Club has always seemed an irrelevance.
Our classic was returning on the Skiathos, lesiurely breakfast and morning swim, departing at lunchtime, into LCY at 3pm, into a cab, straight to Little Miss WHBM's school where the pre-restart day get together was beginning at 3.30, made it (!), dropped the two ladies off, self then continued to the house with the suitcases. We're all looking forward to CityFlyer coming back, all round.
