I just hope that other airlines are allowed to aquire LHR slots to start up service. With the apparent schedule change going on a BA, there should be enough slots to give other airlines
adequate slot times. I've read that Delta wants to add up to 11 daily roundtrips to LHR, and that NW, CO, and USAir also want access. The only people who do not want this to happen are SCARED of the competition. I am sure that Delta and Air France wouldn't mind if another airline wanted to add flights to CDG. And, even ORY is starting to open up----Easyjet will probably get slots soon. And for the people who say there isn't enough room at LHR---give me a break. With all the open gates that used to be occupied by
BA 744's, there now will be room with their absence. Watch out BA and AA people, before you know it you might see DL 777's, NW D10's, CO 777's, and US A330's on final app over Big Ben.
Remember, caution wake turbulence.
