    There was an article in the Sunday Telegraph saying that BAA may sell Gatwick airport. It has been valued by BAA at around 2.5 billion pounds which some say it should be half that.

    If Blair does get his new toy will it be operated by the RAF or a private company?

    How are the transfers between termiNals 3 and 5 going to work for oneworld? Are they going to build a tunnel between the two terminals to improve transfers or something?

    BAA have announced that Terminal 2 will close when terminal 5 opens.

    This is due to the reduced amount of traffic passing through it not makint it economically viable to stay open.

    Press Release

    How will BA fit their whole operation into terminal 5 without phase 2 being completed until 2010?

    When phase 2 is open are other partners going to use t5?

    BA are suspending the Melbourne route due to lack of demand. That probably explains why BA011 doesnt exist anymore. They still offer seats on Qantas flights to Melbourne however.

    Just to confirm. On BAs website there is a press release stating that when they move into terminal 5 Iberia and Qantas will be using terminal 3 not terminal 5.

    The thing that shocked me was Ryanair’s attitude to its employees. It seems that if you complain about being ill or tired then you get the sack as was the case with the captain that was fired at Dublin for saying he was suffering from fatigue. No wonder they are short of pilots. The pilots are probably switching airlines at the first oppurtunity they get
