Most people are flying to Heathrow because it's a hub, so they can fly on to other places, often long-distance flights. If they can't go on those long-distance flights from Heathrow, they will go to Paris, they will go to Amsterdam, they will go to Frankfurt, because those are viable alternatives.

If we want to preserve Heathrow's hub status, we need to stop clogging it up with point-to-point flights to places such as Cyprus and Greece, which between them account for 87 weekly flights, and contribute nothing to overall connectivity.

We've got 180 truckloads of equipment we're going to take up there beginning at 5:30 a.m. after our last flights out, and we've got to get that all set up to handle the Friday night flights, ... So we're going to be busy, but so far, the transition has gone smoothly.

The plan for tomorrow, if we get favorable weather, is to get hand crews on the fire lines, continue air flights and bucket drops to put out hotspots and to continue to be as aggressive as we can while we've got the weather.
