Unnamed airline to replace trans-Atlantic widebody route with little jet

Shades of premium-class travel only and market defragmentation but Privatair says it and an unnamed airline are finalising plans to terminate the airline’s trans-Atlantic widebody service and replacing with with business class-only BBJ or A319LR service. http://www.aviationnow.com/avnow/news/channel_awst_story.jsp?id=news/… 4top.xml

Priatair already runs no-coach transatlantic flights for Lufthansa using BBJs and A319s. Sounds like they’ve found a good niche.
