The A330 may well be just a rumour, or 'horse manure' as you put it.
But given GB's route structure, and the dominance of Easy/Ryan in the main european market, surely the only way that they can safely expand is outwards......
The charters perform this long/medium haul mix with the common A321/A330 rating so why is it so Pie in the Sky for GB?
Otherwise their future is pretty static..... don't tread on the toes of the big LoCo's, and don't go long haul..... so where do you go?
Perhaps the answer lies in WW's assessment of the whole LGW operation.
