Who,is left in the old building, obviously admin, but not sure where they could be housed in the terminal? Doesn't seem to be much room for offices anywhere really, unless they are taking space in the business park?
Shame that EI are axing LGW, seems that even big routes like London can't support more than one carrier into the same airport. I would have thought that a twice daily ATR, or a mix of A319/320 and an ATR would be a good option, but apparently LGW is not a fan of aircraft with less than 150 seats, much less turboprops. FRs mid day service ruins the route becuase the only way to compete wold be to offer the possibility of a day return, or an early arrival and late departure to facilitate connections. In fairness EI did try this, but 2 A320s a day was too much. It's a shame.
