I never believed them but no point arguing with some know it all's 😁
Please tell me again what will happen or maybe I can paste some quotes 😅
Well do you blame them at the time?
A 787 fleet that never made money. A fleet that was partially put up for sale in 2019. A fleet that has been littered with engineering issues. Approaching D checks.
Covid was the perfect time to dispose of them. The saving grace, in today’s green earnings from the fleet, is that nobody wanted them.
The reality is the group is stuck with them until scrap, any future downturn or global event, they will be the first fleet to be scrapped.
