They will use the slots, however, not for any non-profitable domestic routes. Why should they compete with BA on the routes into London? For connecting pax? Terminal 5 is a great Terminal to connect. If BDLH wants to do better, this can certainly not be done by connecting UK Pax in Terminal 1/2. For BDLH is can only be connections for in FRA or DUS and using the LHR slots for TATL routes for the London market.
