Very interesting re The FT and BA comment re Manchester.
It's precisely the subject I addressed on the Heathrow thread and dare I say it reinforced by this piece in the media.
The clamour for runway 3 is I believe based on connectivity using the current model with BA and its connections to the regions.
A number of posters on the LHR thread have suggested,somewhat flippantly in my view, this could quite easily be replaced by EZY, Flybe or BMIR should BA be squeezed out or retract to long haul. Maybe it could but I'm not sure that is what the current supporters of Heathrow 3 have signed up for.
Absolutely nothing wrong with those 3 airlines btw but could the seamless model in situ now be replaced easily ?
Maybe it could, but is that what Glasgow Chamber of Commerce really want ?
It shows how much weight BA still carry on in the media!
They simply have to be part of the process re runway 3
