I agree completely, most of the routes into LHR appear on the face of it to be, to put it mildly, mistakes. Is it conceivable that they are
being paid to operate them as some kind of slot sitting exercise for BA perhaps? I confess I'm not au fait with the politics and regulations regarding slot usage (or lack thereof) but it would appear to be the only logical reason for operating ex BHD and AMS to LHR.
