I offen travel out of LGW and I feel that more routes should be added out of LGW, I was happy to find out last year that VS would add the MRU route out of LGW, but then dissapointed to find out that the MRU route would opperate out of LHR.
Wouldn't it be more proffetable for VS to opperate the MRU route out of LGW as its a leisure route and also I feel that it would be better if VS had a, LGW-Mombasa route rather than a LHR-Nairobi?
Also id like to see a the LGW-NAS route come back!

I'd like a mid morning NYC flight. About 11am from LHR should do it. Enough time to get into JFK, get to your hotel and go out for the evening.

That seems like a good idea. Id like it if VS moved there A343's to LGW in order to have more leisure routes out of LGW and new premium economy seats and v.port.

I am sure each of us would like something different that would suit our personal needs better but VS have to do what is right for them as a business. The leisure routes usually mean more pax flying in Y, and we all know that this is not were VS make their money. MRU, is a destination that VS obviously felt need to be on the higher J/W config a/c and therefore it was better suited to operate ex LHR.

VS have announced some extra flights to MCO/BGI out of LGW & MAN for next year, however I really wouldn't hold your breath for extra destinations, flights etc as this would result in new a/c needed and we all know that with the current climate it is more about surviving than anything else.

Can I also say, I would like a LHR/LGW - VGT flight, I am sure there would be a lot of interest in it.
