Declaring an end to the matter and stating your opinion as fact does not give you credibility. MAN-LHR point to point isn't huge and I believe connections account for a majority on some flights. However I do not see BA pulling MAN-LHR, even if the route in itself loses money, ( I cannot say ), there' a whole lot of empty heavies leaving LHR if BA don't connect domestically. Strategically one may chose to carry a loss if there is a tangile benefit to another part of the business. Just so long as any loss is manageable and not of BMI proportions.
Rutankrd can you link to the split in profit p2p vs. connections as given LHR is all about connections, that will be good to see. Keen to learn if that data is out there, let's have a look.
