British Airways hub and spoke = BAD
Everyone but British Airways hub and spoke = GOOD
Emirates, Qatar, Etihad, Singapore, Lufthansa, Swiss, Iberia, even Aer Lingus are all hub and spoke carriers as are all American, Delta and United who I assume you want to see return. OK, so you hate Heathrow, we get it. But let's favour overseas carriers and jobs over UK bases ones is Manchester localism gone too far.
Give your head a shake Bagso. The "dead" model you hate so much would kill connecting traffic on MAN-JFK-FLL/MIA/ORD/LAX/SFO/PHX/PIT/TUC etc etc You're literally asking to support a hub and spoke model, and you don't seem to know it. Unless I've got this wrong and Aer Lingus will be flying daily non stop to all of the above? Is the whole Shamrock fleet coming to MAN to fly point to point?
