Oh dear, yet more attacks on B.A….Ooooppss, London Airways.
Do the previous posters believe that B.A. should operate out of other regional airports such as Inverness, Leeds/Bradford, Liverpool etc etc…..???? well they used to operate from many regional airports but made cuts to save itself from massive losses.
British Airways is British Airways, always will be and will never be London Airways, the fact that B.A. no longer operate from most regional airports is not a reason to call it London Airways. I suggest you dig out some 1970s and 80s timetables where you will see how many regional airports B.A. used to operate from.

Yes B(ritish..not London)A should operate from regional airports, they CLAIM to be the national carrier for Britain.. NOT just London… You serve to highlight how much an embarrasment they really are, if you have to go back 20-30 years in timetables to see when they were a national airline.
Not suggesting they serve places like Dingwall,Cambridge,Blackpool etc.. to Europe or god forbid further, but, they pulled many many lucrative routes from major cities simply because they wanted to streamline everything thru London,for example, at my local Glasgow,the 4th biggest city in the UK, has ZERO flights that use the callsign Speedbird, not one BA flight leaves the UK,in fact only 3 routes leave Scotland… all to… wait for it….. LONDON! the end result of pulling out of the regions, foreign airlines grabbed the market with inflated prices.
BA are NOT and apparently never will be again, a national airline for the UK!
(at least not the small bit that is outwith the M25)
