British Airways Reviews Gatwick Fleet in Push to Match Heathrow

British Airways could add more wide-body planes at London’s Gatwick airport in a review of capacity at a base dominated by aging single-aisle jets that generate lower profit margins than operations at its main Heathrow hub.

BA is turning to Gatwick’s fleet makeup after reducing its cost base there through an outsourcing strategy, said Silla Maizey, the carrier’s managing director for the airport.
