Ncl-lgw

Flyer55,
There is no chance that BA will restart NCL-LGW. The route lost BA a lot of money. BA have announced LGW-ABZ is going as the Texas oil routes are moving to LHR.

BA strategy at LGW seems to be based around leisure routes. Malta and Paphos from LGW just announced in addition to the tranche of GB routes and new destinations such as Poznan.

Next Summer BA is increasing the no of seats from LHR-NCL by viture that all but one service is a 321 with the other being 320. You wouldn't add that many seats if you were going to restart LGW which would aguably compete for some of the same PAX.
