Quote: "MP for Caithness & Sutherland (far north of Scottish mainland) reports that Vince Cable has agreed to consider referring the Gatwick-Easyjet slot sale to the Competition Commission. "
Sounds very unusual, is this because U2 is the sole carrier on LGW-INV?
Haven't heard of this happening on other routes where one of two operators comes off the route (e.g. BD off LHR-GLA in 2011), apart from the case of the "remedy slots" when BA bought BD, but that was LHR-slot specific and would not apply to LGW.
