As we speak, no changes affecting Poznań-Lviv, which was (is?) also a good candidate for the 'axe'.

All-in-all, a good move from LOT, mostly in terms of extra resources (equipment-wise) at WAW.

Fair enough! Are they trying to reduce costs with the bases outside of WAW?

Would it make more sense for them to base the aircraft at Lviv?

I would be inclined to say not (see the BUD base and all the other flights e.g. TLV out of the 'provinces'), this was purely down to poor demand as it seems.

Fair enough. I know that they are increasing presence at their base in BUD, especially as Hungary no longer has a flag carrier. I thought though they might be trying to reduce costs in Poland by relocating aircraft to WAW.

The Dash isn’t so bad actually. I’ve flown on quite a few and it’s a lovely ride.

You just have to brace for (crash) landing.

Don't 789 deliveries continue again at some point this year? I think there are 3 or 4 more still on order?
