Well coming from a financial background I know just how much the banks make. As I mentioned earlier, when I was reading through the consolodated trading P&L for the major UK carriers it now makes me laugh when the likes of BA and Virgin come out with their sob stories in Accounts publications about how much money they aren't making per seat! I am convinced that the jobs market will pick up again, hopefully in about 2 years time whien I will be looking.

As for those currently advocating going bankrupt... well done, you're all very clever and have done this industry a world of good. Good luck when applying for a mortgage!


In the mean time, one way or another I will be flying for a living over the next 18 months. Look out airlines..here I come!
