Aeroflots slots at Heathrow given to other airlines.....

One of the UK's leading travel trade publications, Travel Trade Gazette is reporting that a number of airlines using London Heathrow have been allocated slots that had previously been used by the Russian airline Aeroflot for this coming winter season. 

Some of the airlines getting these incredibly expensive take-offs and landing slots include Virgin Atlantic, China Airlines, Avianca and JetBlue. Edmond Rose, a former chief executive of slot coordinator ACL told the paper the invasion of Ukraine had created “a lucky windfall” for the airlines.
