I'm not sure how definite "in the plans for 2026" and "almost explicitly" are. Europe will require 789s and those deliveries are constrained for at least the next two years. Add to that the planning and regulatory requirements to add a European destination. Top all that off with the exorbitant slot cost to add LHR.

I'll bet the Over.
