BA domestics seem to be winding down, with only a single rotation yesterday (to/from MAN) and only 2 departures so far today (to EDI and MAN).

G-EUPJ hasn't been north since Saturday.

I think its probably a number of UK DOM flights to move mail/freight? Cant be many passenger flights even shuttles as its down to "essential travel and key workers" moving around. I do wonder how much of BAs scheduled overall network is operating now - must be 5-10% only. Its decimated when you look at the flight radars and trackers, a lot of that at the moment are repatriation flights from India at present. There have been a number of adhoc BA cargo flights using belly space on various pax aircraft recently to likes of Sao Paulo, Larnaca, USA etc

LHR had 132 movements yesterday (lowest total to date during the pandemic), of which 42 were BA, including positioning and freight-only flights.
