I agree fully Jock, even though SAA would not neccesarily be making a killing by introducing a LCC. What they would however do, is to put the competition (of SAA) out of business, and I suspect that is the motivation behind a move of this kind. Face the facts, Im sure no-one can even attempt to hide the facts that 1-Time, and Kulula hurt SAA on the domestic front, because in my opinion every single domestic passenger that boards these LCC's, is an EX/POTENTIAL saa passenger. Only differrence is that SAA can afford to lose of bit more of the taxpayers money, in an effort to bury the competition. History repeats itsself....
