Real Slim Shady -

Problem with your theory there is....

- It's actually the ex-BMED routes which are propping UP the traditionally bmi network at the minute, as this is pŁ$%%*g money.
- Even though the 330s are pretty full on the routes they are currently doing (TLV, CAI and Saudi) the yields aren't great and the extortianate leesing rates make them totally un-profitable...hence why they're still being sent back.
- Passengers flying to the Carribbean don't part with enough money for their seats, and there's not much premium traffic to start with, let alone at the minute!...so even if we were going to keep the 330s, leisure destinations from LHR struggle to pay.
