Why don’t all you bed wetters get a grip.
CX, and airlines like it, will survive this. And in the medium to long term will benefit substantially.
The short term massive hit to revenue will be more than offset in the future as this event will cull all the marginal two bit players from the scene.
All the pesky competition driving yields down will be gone. More slots will be available and less competition will mean higher fares for when that pent up demand comes.
in the mean time, suppliers, ones that Swire doesn’t own, will be squeezed to give better deals. No doubt they’ll find plenty of airport hotels suffering, so it’ll be a great opportunity to shift us to those, where they haven’t already, at cut price rates. Be assured; This crisis will create plenty of opportunities.
If this airline actually shared the treasure in the good times, then everyone would be invested in helping out in the bad. But they’ve chosen a different course; when times are good, we’re told disaster lurks in the next quarter, and when times are bad- well disaster is here, so it’s take, take, take at every opportunity. Which is fine, just don’t ask for my help.
