They oil prices are temporary. I bet it is manipulation of the oil prices to bring pressure upon Czar Putin. Once that is dealt with prices will return to the 100/barrel.

Yes the oil price is temp. Yes there is money in cargo. One round trip of '' now now ''from europe to USA and return, chocka, makes 2 million euros profit. A few minutes with a 1 dollar casio calculator and, yes.... freight makes pax flying a poor second cousin by comparison. This was always the case, nowt has changed.
Yes the russians are in trouble. The poor will be hit hardest as always. Yes, the russians are all over the business world of europe with their 'special methods" of operating. Anyone unfortunate enough to be at the same resort as a bunch of russians will suffer their unfortunate social habits of pissing into the shallow end of the pool in front of the other families, and of course, beer for breakfast. Now't wrong with that. You do that at the HK cricket club dont you 😁

I admit I did enjoy listening to the CX goons tell the plebs at KA that they could not have a freight op as there was no money in freight, even though the straight faced goons were very hard to hear, as just behind their right shoulder they were building the largest freight terminal on earth, and the construction sounds were deafening. "Couldn't lie straight in bed" as my grandfather used to say.
