Default British Airways flies planes empty because it lacks flight attendants

Do these carriers use full size (7X7 or 3XX) airplanes on these 'gotta
keep the slots occupied' flights, or will anything with the range and
speed fill the use requirements?


That's not so common, so it's wahtever needs to be positioned ot wherever
to pick up the next trip, really.

And Anthony is talking crap as usual since hardly any airfreight is carried
in Pax aircraft since 9-11 for obvious reasons.

Even pax baggage recovery or overload is carried in freighters these days.
Carriers still do carry freight, but nothing like what thye used to.
