KLM must be looking forward to getting a lot of business if BAW downgrade to Gatwick!

Pre-COVID Gatwick had many connecting flights. Now things are completely different with the almost cessation of BAW short haul from Gatwick, Virgin exiting, demise of Norwegian and reduction in EasyJet flights. In fact this affects all BAW longhaul from Gatwick to a great extent.

Amsterdam is well placed to offer great onward connections for pax from Ghana. Could be a bad decision by BAW, compounded by replacing A350 With B772 on the route if they move it to Gatwick.

I am of course assuming the Accra route is profitable, if not then why continue. Gatwick will not improve profitability either.
