Why would BA have routed London-Washington passengers through ORY when they have several daily IAD nonstops from LHR? Sorry, but your suggestion makes no sense at all. It's nothing to do with facilitating anything in LCY - it's everything to do with OpenSkies' inability to achieve profitability, especially on their ORY-IAD route.
