It's all rather ironic. Not too long ago BA had the opportunity of transferring routes to CityFlyer to try to make them profitable. Now one or two talk about GB doing it. Great idea, go for a non-wholly owned franchise instead of the subsidiary.
Unfortunately, Gatwick was always going to come under the microscope because EOG is such a disaster financially. There are multiple reasons for this, but ultimately BA had the chance to rectify the situation, decided not to, and then really blew it by effectively shutting CityFlyer down. Idiots.
My best wishes to all individuals who are concerned.
