Rex is very healthy. It is a very good argument NOT to put pilots wages up.
Shows why you guys are pilots and NOT business managers.
*Sigh*. Tell that to the staff who have to cancel sectors virtually every weekend - the ops staff who make the call, the call centre guys who have to tell the passengers, the gate staff who have to deal with the pax who the call centre missed, the crew who have to deal with angry pax on board the aircraft.
There is a very simple reason profits are up. Cancelling so many flights means that almost every remaining flight goes out full or close to it. It's simple economics. Every fligth cancelled saves the company money.
Doesn't do much for the couple of thousand p!ssed off passengers though.
