Little Prince you are 100% correct.
BA mainline has for far too long lost money on domestic and regional operations.
Loosing money is not an option in this world anymore, and it is the management of BA in Waterside who have made these moves inorder to try and stop relentless loss making operations.
I don't envy any of you guys flying for mainline, god bless all and I wish you the very best of success, but the fact is there are many routes on which you can not operate profitably, hence the role of BACE to still provide lucrative interline traffic yet take the burden of loss making services from you.
If you continue to lose money hand over fist you will all go out of business, USair has had the highest staff costs of any airline in the US and today has filed chapter 11.
BACE is the future of regional flying in the UK.
