Every man and their dog knows how lucrative the London to Glasgow route
Was. Traffic has collapsed. BA no longer nightstop two aircraft for GLA-LHR, BD are down from 8 to 6 rotations. Even FR have PIK-STN down to one a day now.
Many of the weekend BD rotations are in the ERJs as well. It's worth remembering that LHR-MME was well known to be a goner and they were still taking bookings. I was booked in April of the year it was axed and the Indian call centre continued to reassure me it would operate.
I wouldn't read anything into bmibaby's commencment of STN-BHD though.
