Galley FM on LCY changes post-ORY
I came back to London on the mid-morning ORY-LCY flight yesterday and got chatting about the route demise with the cabin crew - loads ex LCY have been poor for a long time so it was expected the route would go. As slots could not be found for LCY-CDG, it seems a new route (for LCY) to CPH may result.
Pinch of salt, etc.

There is scope for frequency increases, the CPH run was mooted as once per day and ORY is/soon to be was 3x so even with the above coming true, something else will happen

I used to use the LHR-ORY service frequently and usually in C, when it moved I and several others I know who live to the west wouldn't travel to LCY as the time and hassle was far worse than flying to CDG. As far as I could see the loads were good with C often going to row 10 and Y pretty full. It's a pity it was stopped but no doubt the slots are now used for somewhere like LPA or TFS as BA moves away from serving the needs of business travelers.

I’d personally like to see a Barcelona service at sensible times for business. Particularly since the service from Gatwick finishes (for this year at least) at the end of March making it Heathrow only on BA.
