Lots of talk about slots on here - but is LHR again slot-constrained after the pandemic? The reason why slots at LHR have traditionally been seen as a goldmine was that there were no slots available from the slot pool (other than useless "moonlight slots"). Is that the case again? Plus another issue is that serious money is usually paid for slots suitable for long-haul ops. This is not necessarily the case when slots used by a short-haul operator become available as those slots may not allow for sufficient ground-time or are at unsuitable ime of the day. So those slots may have some value but not necessarily as much as many would hope.
