The traffic figures for August reflect the state of uncertainty in the industry:

As the CEO constantly points out they need liquid cash to keep going, the LH flights from UK are available from early Dec but take up is pretty non-existent as the boarders are closed and travel insurance/ credit card claw back won't cover if you book to a "closed destination" knowing that at the time. If Trump gets his act together and opens USA up they may have a chance, otherwise LGW LH will be much delayed, having said that, its doubtful the company would want to bleed cash into non profit making routes, as pointed out again by CEO :"and concentrate supply in line with demand."
