They don’t operate a regional type, it is all Airbus family and have a very large presence there dominating the slot portfolio. They can afford to make a loss on point to point domestics if needs be, albeit I’m sure for the most part they probably don’t. Any loss can be absorbed. Regional airlines with smaller types tend to struggle with the LGW cost base. It cost the same to land an A319 as it does an E195, yet one has far more revenue seats up for grabs.
