UK feed is not that important any more outside of MAN/EDI/ABZ
I agree to the extent UK feed is not *profitable* hence anything on the Embraer is for the chop. That includes MAN and ABZ, with only EDI possibly remaining as it's a very strong city destination in it's own right. Indeed I very much doubt there's room for DUB.

It depends on how STN goes with WW, for many unless your interlining there is now little differance in travel times to London using the STN or LHR express and holding delays and tarmac delays are less at STN.
On paper that's true but the behaviour of the market doesn't reflect that. It's London and the M4 corridor with all the businesses therein that's the key driver, that's the issue not London per se. Heathrow is bang on the M4 corridor.
