I have just noticed on the Gatwick Airport site that a 3 times weekly BA service to Male has been entered departing Wed Fri Sun at 1815 non-stop flights on Boeing 777. Starts Winter timetable I believe. I guess that this may mean another 777 at Gatwick to provide these flights and the ones to Mauritius. Sharm el-Sheikh still there too. I guess as some other carriers have cancelled their flights BA may pick some of the displaced passengers in the coming months. Apologies if this new service has been mentioned before.
