Good times ahead for BA Franchise ?
Although it is troubled times for BA Mainline, resulting in a cut back in capacity, will this be good news for the BA franchise companies GB,B-Med and Maersk. Will they profit by picking up some of the lost routes?

I too heard this rumour, but no details, that BMed were likely to pick up some of the cut BA routes, ?Gatwick ones and operate them from LHR in order to utilize and keep BA's slots there alive. Tripoli for instance would fit in nicely with BMed's current routes. If true then this will be the first effective transfer of pilot jobs from mainline to franchise, probably fits nicely with Rod's masterplan. We have only seen the tip of the iceberg as management race to make the most of this opportunity.
