I did it back in the day on a Continental flight DUB-SNN-EWR and getting off the plane with the raging hangover from the night before was not my idea of a good time. For folks who can afford to pay for the J fares anyways I'm guessing that there will be a lot of LON-NYC travel from one of the other airports on a non-stop flight and the returns to LCY on the BA "shuttle" flight. This will make the west-bound flights less than profitable unless there is a significant premium being charged.
