According the 'oracle' -The Gulf News' 03/03/03 here in Dubai BA have had to do YET ANOTHER CHANGE to the schedules after significant pax discontent in the area.
Although all flights still operate via LCA BA have decided to resume the LHR-MCT service ...so is it commercailly viable this week but not last week?? but only 2 flts a week.....
DXB gets 11 flts a week, AUH 3 a week (dont think that the capital/federal authorities will be too impressed by the snub of shifting the flts down the coast but probably makes sense as PAX are still coming here ...Desert Classic this week & Gold Cup Racing toward the end of the month!!)
The suggested service schedule is a follows:
Six to BAH
Three to KWT
Three to Doha
Two to MCT
Four to Jeddah
Three to Riyadh
No confirmation of timings or details of this on the BA website.....
No doubt there will be some more fine adjustments before they commit themselves to the screens!!
Still dont feel that these changes will do much to retieve the image of BA in the UAE .......SLF's will vote with their feet to other DIRECT NON STOP services to/from DXB...
Let us all hope that the situation is rectified soon so that we can back to some form of normality.....
