BBC news says that airlines are looking for a way out and want restrictions re-considered and relaxed. They're testing the envelope all over Europe from the sound of it and collecting data. Must be all working together.

Re-positioning? I wonder if the airlines are going to chance it and start getting the planes where they want them - presumably passengerless .
