Heathrow has exactly zero flights to Orlando[1], so that market is
catered for elsewhere (and rarely at a week's notice).

[1] There are five a day to Miami, but that's over 200 miles away.

Clearly you had trouble understanding the "or wherever" phrase in the example.

Here, let me help you:

And you appear to be having difficulty understanding that many other
resort destinations are also not served from Heathrow.

Oh. Well thanks for the heads up. Obviously the sort of planes used to fly
to resort destinations are completely different to planes that don't so
I guess that makes my example completely invalid , right?

Btw, DisneyLAND is in LA and I'm fairly sure there are flights to LA from
Heathrow unless you care to prove otherwise.

No? Shall we move on then?

So now your pedantry is out the way do you have anything valid to add or
have you shot you single sad little bolt?

They are likely to be slightly different in that they'll tend to have a
'charter' seating layout of mainly economy with poor seat pitch.

What's more important for the discussion today, however, is that there
won't be nearly as much "hubbing" going on for the passengers of such
planes, so a point-to-point airport is more appropriate.

There are, but I've never heard of someone flying from the UK to
DisneyLAND. They all seem to head for Florida.

Why not go canvas the passengers on an LA flight, especially ones with kids.
I'm sure you'll find plenty.
