But I'd be confident that a new sub-fleet is not on the horizon.
Oh I don’t for a moment think they’d do it and I agree that BA must love the flexibility of using club Europe on these routes. But there will be opportunities for using new aircraft such as the XLR to open up some thinner LH routes and better serve existing ones.
