We don't know what Brexit is yet as it hasn't played out yet. That's what happens when you adopt a 'written on the back of a fag packet' plan and get it voted through. As for this Aer Lingus modus operandus, presumably it's just a ploy from IAG to unsettle Virgin Atlantic who have been building up their MAN portfolio with some degree of success. Aer Lingus operate a lower cost model which would make these flights somewhat more viable than actual BA services. A pity they couldn't base an A321 at GLA on a Chicago or Boston service.

Re: Man
Thr article you link to says "A legacy carrier, in the United States, is an airline that had established interstate routes..". That provides a definition of the term as used in the US, but doesn't mean the term is exclusively related to US airlines and therefore can't be considered solely an 'American term' as you say. A quick search reveals plenty of references to the phrase in non-US contexts.awwdabaaby wrote: ↑Sat Dec 19, 2020 1:39 pm If someone had actually checked before commenting Legacy Carrier is an American term
