Hot spots are all about volume, and numbers. I like LGW too, though it can be sparser for connections.
If you're going to London, LGW is really nice (a not-hot-spot). If, however, you are connecting through London to far flung destinations, then LHR, as party places go, is, like, Ibiza.
What partners does NW have that you could connect on in London, AF to CDG, KL to AMS, OK to PRG and what else? Connections seem slim. If one is going to book a seperate flight from London, they are likely to get popped twice with the UK's huge ''save the planet'' air ticket tax.
