For BA to operate it, it probably would be a loss making route, but then again the feed would help other flights.
Yes, but what market would MAN/LGW serve. Virgin Trains offer a far quicker city centre to city centre service than any of the airlines, given the faffing around that is part and parcel of flying these days, hubbing at LGW is again quite limited these days, and with MAN having such great connections both east and west these days I can't see the point.
Perhaps the best chance for success on MAN/LGW would be package tours to Brighton, or away days to Man. United home games!
