BA should never of moved as much away from LGW in the first place.

However to bring some destinations back to LGW they would need to re-introduce some feeder routes, domestic and shorthaul Euro

Id personally love to see some more Long and Shorthaul BA flights at LGW but i cant see it short term, However BA have been changing the way they operate, bringing costs down, outsourcing staffing etc, and now the SH sun routes are expanding which is nice to see.

Would be nice to see some more routes announced for Winter, maybe even some new Longhaul routes.

Anyone know how LAS is doing ex LGW ?, as the only Longhaul route that runs from LHR and LGW id be curious to know.

What is needed i think is a Longhaul flight ex LGW into an AA hub to offer some feed onward within the USA, perhaps its time to try a well timed JFK flight, well timed to allow connections at LGW and also at JFK, perhaps on a 3 class 772 ? at least this would also allow connecting traffic from places like JER and would not involve a trip around the M25
