I would suggest that the desperation to find routes that they hope won’t lose a large fortune (only a small fortune) into Heathrow simply confirms what I have always said which is that Flybe v2 is simply a Heathrow (and to a lesser extend, Amsterdam) slot play. It will take a number of years to play out, assuming they don’t run out of money before then and in the meantime cause all sort of damage to other companies, but I’m afraid no current Flybe v2 staff can expect to get 10 year long service medals.
