Thanks MV for your usual calm, measured analysis of the position.
Do you have figures for Newark? thats the one which worries me, only time I use BRS is on the way to IAH - if that goes then its yet more LHR or a nonstop from DXB which @ 18 hours is a non starter - getting old.
Its interesting that the regional figures are still going up, could it be BRS has historically been underserved & its growth is actually (to a degree) coming from (shall we call it) transfers from LHR?
The No 1 on my wish list is a NS to DXB or anywhere within 300 nms.
