I hope they realize that people are not as dumb as they seem, they can make all the press releases in the world but the underlying fact is that they still treat their drivers as c##p. work them long hours, and give false promises about retirement. You think all these management guys at the top will care when they retire? Cry me a river......
Did they mention that you can't buy planes of the shelves like items in a supermarket? It takes years from the time a plane is ordered till it finally gets delivered. To start new routes requires not only massive pull from the government but also a lot of lobbying to get back most of the routes it has lost years ago to other carriers.
Lufthansa et all will just not say, ok, you can have all your old routes back, they have invested too much time and money already. What about all your middle eastern carriers that use their hubs to haul traffic to and from europe at half of what
PR will charge.
They should fix the mess inhouse first before even thinking about other markets, because by that time all the good guys will be gone.
