DFW Cancelled for Days
I was checking flight status for BA193, LHR-DFW, and noticed that it is cancelled for the foreseeable future- every day through this week.
Anyone know anything about this? Seems a bit odd for peak season.
I'm concerned, because I'm booked on it sometime soon!

if they need to take an aircraft out of service for maintenance etc, this would seem an obvious route to cut - plenty of AA frequency between LHR and DFW to move passengers onto plus DFW isn't exactly a massive leisure market and July/August is the best time to take a route with heavy business traffic (in premium cabins) offline - the 'leisure' traffic on the DFW route is probably also largely connecting traffic through the AA hub there, for which there are plenty of alternatives re-routing through CLT, PHL, JFK or even PHX for points West.
Seems an emninently sensible route to take offline for a few days, if you have to.
