So that's Belfast, Birmingham and Newcastle culled by UA in the last year, Glasgow and Shannon on the greasy pole, and Bristol, Gatwick and Stansted binned before that. What does that actually leave around here - LHR, MAN, EDI, DUB? How long before an excuse is made for them?
Certainly looks like United are formidably on the front foot with an aggressive market defence and growth strategy in the face of fresh competition!!
