eviedence please rex? These cuts are to the short haul 737/max operation not long haul!!

I think Brexit is having a slight effect, uncertainty is bound to do that to business and consumer confidence, but there are other larger factors at work hence the slow down in China and Germany, the JLR cuts are down to China not buying expensive SUV in the numbers that they were ( mind you Prince Philip will need a new one 😂🇬&#127463

Norwegian got caught out big style with fuel hedging, I believe FR did too ?

The US bases at PVD/SWF were ghost bases, no pilots based there, although that wasn’t the plan....

PMI was an odd choice, the charter market will still be served, easy enough to do with W patterns from LGW which will remain a major hub for short haul and Long haul
