Before we go any further with the speculation as to why EI are going back on SNN-LHR route, can I say that the restart of SNN-LHR has been a rumour for a few months now and imo is more to do with reducing costs at SNN than being backed into a corner by MOL or politicians. No doubt some local politicians will take credit for it and are already, but EI are back because ther is money to be made there and the load factors showed that in the past.
