Seems there is no MAN -> LHR availability loaded either.

Every flight I try to book MAN -> LON -> XXX comes up with an LGW shuttle then transfer to LHR.

Last weekend we used 2 companions vouchers for MAN-LGW return - with rewards saver it was cheaper than the train! Not a good use of them, but they would expire otherwise...

Good news - now I wonder if SGN will appear too - looking to book seats there for August 2013 so gives a few more months to see if BA decide to go direct. Current thinking is it will be via HKG.

Well said!

Let us look at BA's performance at non slot constrained airports! There is only LGW left and they are a shadow of their former self. Surely one of the reasons BA is profitable is that...

So, 14 slot pairs given up but must be used for certain destinations - seems a win win for IAG.

I agree with you 100% - it needs a willing airline, a willing airport with capacity and a willing government (to reduce APD as per the BFS example) as you need to implement the "wave" concept as EK...

BA would never do it. You would probably need at least 5 based aircraft to do the European shuttles and bring in decent numbers - actually nearer 10 to make it viable. When the MAN -> JFK service...
