Yawn...
Usual Sat. morning stuff.
Reason is NAS is operated by a 767 which has only recently been moved to LHR for longhaul. The only people being positioned up the night before are some of the cabin crew as there is a lack of 76 rated crew at LHR post 11/9 in the rush to move things.
LGW crew cannot do the service on the day from their base due to the very tight FTL and the dreaded M25. They should be going out the following day not 48 hours later, that never happens.
Flight crew are LHR based so direct report for them. This whole operation is the result of BA moving quickly to try and stop losing money, and not a cause of it.
Still losing it though!!! oh well....
