Reducing the frequency of flights to popular destinations fundamentally breaks the hub and spoke model. Heathrow is a hub airport.

In a rational world, the regulator and government would require the monopoly provider of critical transport infrastructure to invest in a way that ensures supply keeps pace with demand. Instead, government needs to be cajoled into reluctantly and unreliable allowing investment. It’s no surprise that our infrastructure is so poor.
