I hope they let LGW and LHR build one new runway each. Interesting to see if LGW can finance one if LHR have a green light too given that the majority of airlines, LCCs excepted, prefer LHR over LGW.

BA to become sole LHR to MAD airline?

Any truth in gossip that IAG may ask Iberia to stop LHR-MAD flights later this year?

Makes sense if over capacity and a bonus for BA if it secures new slots for new longhaul routes.
