Let’s look at the routes:
Belfast-LHR : BA and Aer Lingus already operate it so any carrier looking for a codeshare has a choice (the two other carriers also having much more frequent flights)
AMS-LHR: BA and KLM already operate at much higher frequencies and business friendly times.
NQY-LHR: seasonal service by BA.
IOM-LHR: up against a daily Loganair flight (which already codeshares with BA and is supported by IOM gov).
Other than NQY there are more attractive partners on all their LHR routes and NQY is hardly that popular when BA with their massive network can’t sustain it.
Do BA code-share with members of other alliances?
