So the long haul destinations are gradually being depleted; all we have at LGW (and I dont mind being corrected) are MCO, Tampa and the Caribbean routes. How long will it be before these also move down to T5?
The LGW leisure routes will stay there for the medium term. There are neither enough slots at LHR nor spare capacity in T5 to move them over (T5 is now operating close to capacity). BA took advantage of Open Skies to move the LGW business-orientated routes to LHR, but Caribbean etc should remain at LGW at least until the 3rd runway opens.
