No surprises, a fudge allowing both sides to claim a win. Emirates have had their books open and audited by PWC for the past 18 years and they are benefiting from the QR blockade. Meanwhile the economic realities of bad investments are causing a change of strategy for EY and they look like shrinking to become a more bespoke carrier. A reduction from 140-90 aircraft is the rumour. Interestingly 5th freedom rights are still an option though QR and EY dont have any interest. Ek struggling to crew what they have and would not be capable off adding 5th freedom flights in the next 12-24 months anyhow. Realistically the landscape has changed since this all started with Qatar being isolated and EY scaling back. Millions of $ spent by both sides and really nothing will change that geopolitics and economics wasnt already changing. The lawyers will be the real winners.
