Thats maybe the reason to keep capacity so low and prices so high.
I live here, and have flown home to the UK a few times with Finnair. Last year they had an overnight flight in each direction with perfect timed a350 flights in and out of LHR. No longer - Morning departures both ways and A350s for the long haul only. Much worse. But yes, still the cheapest way at the moment in J.
