Meanwhile everyone else has operated pretty much to time.
It's the same when issues happen at Heathrow, BA do scads of cancellations, often including dropping the entire domestic operation, while other operators continue to provide their full timetable.
Maybe they have more to lose with the subsequent disruption?
Also, is it fairer to ask BA to cancel say 0.3% of their schedule or Agean to cancel 30%?
