HEL-LCA is missing. AY flies this weekly (3x weekly in summer)- AY 2851 effective 17Feb
MAD-OTP. Looks like IB is now flying this route using its own aircraft on weekends (IB3801 effective 3/3/07)
Thanks Cyba. The tool takes a simplistic approach (I can say this as it was me who created the simplicity ) to BA TPs - it is purely based on the distance of 2000 miles being the split between long & short haul TPs as far as BA is concerned. Both LCA-LHR and PFO-MAN come in at > 2000 miles, so therefore the TPs computed are wrong because BA sells them as short haul. Likewise, BAH-DOH, AUH-MCT will also be wrong. There's no easy remedy for this I'll look at adding the missing sectors later this week.
