Two points to note from this:
First, it’s a sign of return of growth by BA to Gatwick after a very long period of contraction in its short-haul network.
Second, it’s also an indication that future short-haul route launches at Gatwick are likely to be longer-range flights for holidaymakers rather than short-haul routes that are well covered by easyJet.
