Some of your opinions lack context though.
1) The wider debate surrounded the car bonnet incident and whether MAN’s failures justified it. You weighed into that debate.
2) As appalling as the bagge incident is, these videos appear every so often. I can’t remember where the last place was where such behaviour was captured. It won’t affect passenger numbers.
3) CX -the fact they are going to DUB doesn’t necessarily reflect on MAN’s performance. It could well be a strategic decision or even that CX at MAN is performing well (which it is) but hasn’t yet proven a business case for further frequencies yet.
4) Hainan has more to do with its own issues than anything else I would say.
I just think some, at this stage at least, are exaggerating the affect of some of the problems that MAN faces.
The example of your colleague is totally anecdotal as is the people I come across from time to time who say “we usually like to fly from Liverpool” etc etc.
