Long haul expansion at LGW

I agree with you. Given the instability in the middle east and Lebanon at the moment, I don’t see MEA in a position to expand their London operations, especially with other airlines, including BA and...

LGW-BKK now bookable on BA :) Shame that they aren't reusing the old BA9/10 flight numbers, which of course have a certain place in history. Really hoping this route will do well and will remain at...

At last! This has long been rumoured even before BKK was cut from LHR. A very nice addition to the BA network at LGW. The question is though, will this route remain at LGW for the long term, or will...

I'd imagine that there is a reasonable chance of EK increasing LGW to 4 a day, but I reckon the additional rotation is more likely to be flown with the 77W, similar to the recently added LHR flight....

Who's next?

Agreed. This is a sad loss for LHR, and indeed, the end of an era for ITA, who have, of course, had a long history serving Heathrow through their predecessor, Alitalia. Certainly did not see this one...

Gosh, wow, wasn't expecting this. A lot of competition with EZY, Wizz and VY also serving LGW-FCO. BA also used to fly to Rome from LGW for many years up until Covid hit.

I think they're still rejigging/finalising the S24 schedules and a/c for LHR-HKG, so this is more than likely to change from the current 77W/A359 mix.
