That was a loco which offered a very pleasant travelling experience indeed!
Indeed..and look what happened to them. Oh yeah, they lost shedloads of money and got gobbled up at a bargain price by.....Ryanair.
As SLF I would dearly love Southwest to come over to Europe. Maybe they will. JetBlue would also be very welcome. Might just make Ryanair get to grips with passenger satisfaction and customer service.
They might, but they'd probably be driven back. The marketplace here is very different from the USA, plus it would be more likely to drive Ryanair into a price war - and look how that has ended up for other airlines who have tried to intrude on Ryanair's territory. Not very well - Ryanair simply undercut them until they bled so much they had to pull out.
