On the subject of slots, I heard from a very reliable source that many of the new slots required by easyJet for its expansion at Gatwick have been "borrowed" from Virgin Atlantic. Virgin has spare slots at Gatwick after dumping Toronto, Boston, Newark etc post 11 September and easyJet is going to be using them. Should make life interesting when Virgin wants them back - or are easyJet assuming that they will have finished off BA at Gatwick by then?

If I was being really cynical, is this another Virgin attempt to have a go at BA?
