K.I.L.:
Think about it for a moment, bmibaby fares are often more expensive than mainline fares.... how can mainline be honestly making a profit!!!
Its all smoke and mirrors if you ask me. Thats what they pay expensive accounts for, to massge figures and make it look like they're in profit when they're not. If you had access to the revenue on these flights (and I did!) you would see most mainline flights are full of people down the back who've paid tupence halfpenny to travel on a internet only fare.
Why do you think mainline ditched most of their in-flight service apart from biscuits and drinks...? No money maybe???
