I cannot agree that BA already compete on IRISH routes
No service to CORK , only FR and EI
No service to SNN only FR and EI
No service to KIR only FR
No service to NOC only FR and EI
and the domestice legs
No service to LDY only FR
Service to BHD competes with EI BE EZYamong others but no FR
BA are cutting back on service to DUB , after less than a year , and never delivered on the promised 8 a day to BHD as yet anyway
Something just tells me BA will take any slots they can from IRELAND or Domestic UK and switch them toLonghaul when they get the planes
Why else have they no interest in serving some very busy routes.
I think there is more chance of FR buying IAG , for cash , than there is of EI selling BA their slots for BA to divert these slots away from IRELAND or Domestic UK ,
But who knows MOL always has a plan and he sure wants to expand and has the cash for IAG which is not performing well at all ......
