This vision makes no sense - it is a 1980's vision, complete with catch phrases.

For a start, the future of air transport is the Dreamliner, passengers, including me, are sick and tired of going through hubs. I want direct flights with as little as possible sitting around/weather delays/ technical delays/ security screens/ check ins and general airport bastardry as possible.

The thought of a hub, managed by the great and good MOL, as an an extremly fine mesh money strainer, has about as much appeal as waterboarding. To put it another way, when I see the words "connecting flight", I want to throw up.

I suspect that this bid has everything to do with smoke and mirrors, and not with "releasing shareholder value"
