Pleased that LBA is moving to T5, I shall now be using it instead of MAN while I can, providing times are sensible for connections. Is there a link to the new schedule for LBA?

Why can't the midhaul 321 operate out of T5? Does it have different shaped doors?
LYS may not be a high earner but it clearly isn't struggling like LBA is, evidenced by the fact that when they moved it to the air-shed that is T1, they added one or two extra flights per day (can't remember which off the top of my head).

It's due to size of cargo containers. There's some sort of issue with that but hey T1 isn't sticking in for long.
LYS isn't bad but it isn't great either. There is not enough capacity in T5 to accomodate flights therefore commercial decision to operate out of T1. Relocation of DUS and TLS suggests that these routes were doing better.
There is also a rumor of JAL moving in to T5 at the end of March. Apparently decision has been made and now there are discussions how to accomodate them. Makes sense given new JB and single flight a day.
In addition CAI is operated by B767 for most of S13.
