North terminal

Morning all,

I have a question - was it the original intention that the North terminal would be exclusive to British Airways? I remember watching an LGW documentary recently, and John King (then head of BA) had expressed desire to BAA that BA would be the sole operator in the (then to be built) North, leaving all other airlines in the South terminal, a bit like LHR terminal 5.

Also, given that Norwegian are due to recommence long haul operations from LGW in December, what is the likelihood of the South terminal being reopened? CX will also be returning to LGW from October, so it will be interesting to see whether LGW reverts to dual terminal operations or continues to consolidate all flights in the North terminal.
