The problem, Numero, is that the competition, who did not hedge as much as we did, benefit more from the low fuel price than we do.

Hence, while a high fuel price is bad for us, it's even worse for the competition (especially the low cost carriers as their 'low operating cost' is further diluted in their total cost (including fuel price).

So in the end, high fuel cost could also be a good thing for us.
