if it happens

and the planet.


how?

Flights from these other hubs are still going to operate.


There will be fewer of them


but, certainly in the case of South America, that's not going to happen

I've flown the LON-MAD-S America route and 90% of the passengers on the long
haul part are Spanish Speaking.

Their source/destination for this journey was Spain.

They aren't going to switch to flying via LON, it adds 6 hours to their
journey.

if they lose their UK pax.


there aren't enough Brits on many of these suggested routes to make a
difference
