What Happened To British Airways’ Manchester Hub?

Airport hubs are some of the largest and most important investments that any individual air carrier can make. For large legacy airlines like British Airways, investment in the development of just a couple of large hubs was all that was needed to support the development of a massive intercontinental network. At the end of the day, British Airways is a network carrier, meaning that its primary purpose is to offer as much connectivity as possible between destinations across the globe.
