I've been wondering for a while about whether LGW is as capacity constrained as LHR. It seems like there is a fair amount of LCC traffic there now with Easyjet et al. So what is the going price for a slot at LGW? Are they allocated by the same system as at LHR?

Also, is LGW subject to Bermuda II type regulations? Or is there a seperate bi-lateral accord governing non LHR airports. If a new carrier, for example, wanted to operate LGW-BOS or LGW-BWI could they do that?

Thanks in advance!
