Eastern will be flying into Terminal 2 which serves predominantly Star Alliance and Emirates.
IAG and Oneworld Alliance (Mainly BA, AA and IB) use T5 with some flights from Oneworld operating from T3 ( American Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Finnair, Japan Airlines, Qantas, Royal Jordanian, and SriLankan Airlines. and T4 (.Malaysia Airlines, Royal Air Maroc and Qatar Airways - (ref. wiki)

Have Eastern signed (or do they intend to sign) any sort of cooperation agreement with either IAG or some of the Star Alliance carriers ? Without this, I would be rather dubious about the chance of Heathrow working

But in the modern world of how things work, more and more people are using online aggregators and booking separate tickets. It’s not helpful, but hardly a huge issue for Eastern here.
An alternative local perspective:
Mr Houchen had been set to fight an election in May, which was postponed due to the covid-19 crisis. Labour’s candidate Jessie Joe Jacobs, who will face the incumbent at the ballot box in 2021, has responded to the Heathrow announcement.
She said: “A new flight from our airport would ordinarily be great news but we are in the middle of a global crisis. That crisis has seen the number of people flying collapse with airlines going bankrupt and airports closing. The Mayor needs to be up front with people about the cost of all of this. He’s spent Ł100m on the airport and that’s rising. The cost per passenger is huge. I’ve been speaking to a number of local people and honestly to those that can’t get a bus off their estate or out of their village, they’re more angry than excited at the amount of their money being spent on securing a flight to London at a time when flying doesn’t feel like a priority. Politics is about priorities and people across the Tees Valley are left with third rate transport systems while a small minority receive a huge subsidy to fly to London.”

is there some sort of discount for smaller aircraft at LHR, otherwise will they not get murdered on landing fees?
An IAG codeshare or through agreement would be some sort of saving grace - you have to think they’ve at least considered it.

Im sure industry wide revised lower rates are in play. It would be astounding if Eastern are paying pre covid handling and landing fees or any fees in any airport including LHR.

You have to wonder how deep the Mayor's pockets are. His opponent has a fair point.
They have no slots for this winter at LHR and running an E170 into LHR is a very expensive exercise as the noise margin means that it's charged more for landing than an A320. It could be a very expensive flash in the pan.
