BAA strike

IF and its a big IF the BAA strike goes ahead what position would BRS find itself in?

I assume it is a given that existing scheduled operators such as AF / KL / SN possibly CO would upscale their offerings and maybe even offer an additional service or two to assist the 'must flys' on strike days - they would certainly have spare aircraft.

My questions are
1) if an existing operator such as AF/ KL / SN wanted to (effectively) divert some of their LHR or SOU services to BRS, maybe even to a destination they don't presently serve (say AF to Nice)

2) if a carrier who doesn't presently serve BRS such as say LH wanted do the same

Would it be possible to arrange? could BRS handle much additional traffic at this time of year? and would it be worth it for the airline?
