We haven't got any heathrow slots (yet) so guess its a premature rumour?!
I'd be surprised to be honest as the approach so far seems to be keep costs to absolute minimum. Doesn't tie in with buy some more planes and have to type rate pilots. (guess the top brass in abz will be first to get rated!)
Who knows though. No information is forthcoming.
What concerns me more is what they going to do with the 7/9? embraers with nowt to do over winter. Will people book with a dead brand. Have they began dual HQ just so one of the bosses can live near home. Have the planes been protected with this IOM thing? Hardly inspires confidence.
