And good luck with that.

Currently, the cheapest LGW-OAK return on DY is £264 including taxes.
The cheapest LHR-SFO return on BA is £605, ie more than double that.

Cheapest LGW-BOS on DY: £234 return including taxes.
Cheapest LHR-BOS on BA: £452

I'm sure that removing the free mini packet of crisps will bring BA in line with its role model.
