Absolutely totally in agreement. There are some that post on this forum that appear to think that aircraft acquisition, funding & operation is a rather simple straight forward process
Anyhow given GSM's grand longhaul expansion plans into the US & Canada, is there any indication as to inter connection agreements for transiting passengers? - though in any event how many onward connections from YHM ?
I noted that there was talk of a switch from EWR to JFK on the NYC services, but without the ability to cross sell onward connections one must presume that these routes will remain supported predominantly by tourist pax. This being the case then I presume that GSM will need to budget for dramatic fall off in loads outside the traditional holiday periods.
