Its been suggested on another website (PPRUNE- Manchester thread) that MANplc are unhappy at the removal of the long haul network by the British based airlines: BA to New York and BMI to Las Vegas, Chicago etc and have looked into the legality of taking away their slots for the Heathrow and Gatwick shuttle flights. Now if this did happen which seems a rather extreme and risky move on MANplc's part, it could lead to the airlines switching to Liverpool rather than restart their long haul flights from MAN, on the other hand it could just push more passengers onto both KLM services and Lufthansa and Air France thus helping no one. Anyhow its an interesting rumour so i thought id post it though who knows if it will ever come to fruition.
