Thank you to BApilotinsider from Mrs Dark Horse (her especially!) and I.

Now, at the risk of stirring slightly (moi?!), I wonder how the FT reaction might have been different had the promotion been at Paddington for LHR destinations?

I also wonder how little that matters to BA, given that this was clearly aimed at a very different target audience to the 'average' FT'er?

Speaking as a longtime fan of BA at Gatwick, I might add...
