$31M for a single slot? I'm in the wrong business that's for sure.

This reminds me ALL too much of my time at Continental...when I flew a B-757 KCLE to Gatwick (EGKK) back before CAL had access to Heathrow (EGLL). We ALSO "adopted" (for a while) KMIA-EGKK routes from Eastern Airlines...then flown by the DC-10-30. Yeah, I operated those a few times, as an F/O.

The "landing slot" concept is BIG BUSINESS...'innit'?? :-)

I wasn't personally responsible for this. Business, and former Astronaut Frank Borman had a hand in it.

Might be time to let that axe that you seem to have been grinding away at finally get ground down to a nub.
