Cant see the GOA or the TRN lasting really, and the LIN will face tough competition with BA’s MXP. BA will no doubt kick up a fuss about it however, as they tried very hard to get LIN slots instead of MXP ones.
FCO is a route that LCY has long been crying out for, so that one is very positive indeed.
I am slightly dubious about capacity restrictions though, these flights wont be able to operate at particularly good times as LCY has been full for a little while now in the early morning and evening…
