I doubt they will fly to lhr with the 321. To buy a slot there is a multi million dollar cost then add to that lhr has some of the highest fees of any airport in the world. An a 321 which will be configured with probably about 166 seats or so is a money losing idea. To fly into the you want to use the biggest plane with the most fc seats you can get. There is a reason why as flies the 777-300 in there so often.

That would make sense.
