They'll throw around big buck numbers for earnings in the media to influence the guy in the street (see BA currently in the UK), they'll bang on about how few days you work and the perks...................
These people are not nice
No you are correct, they are not nice.
Let them throw around the big numbers, the British Airways campaign is cut from the same playbook.
Problematic for all airlines is supply.
Demographics are creating big headaches, the barriers (cost) of entry and reduced terms and conditions make the industry far less attractive.
These issues will continue to generate real problems that will never be admitted but the market will adjust: either terms improve to induce supply or the cancellation rates grow.
