Mr Brown re:

"Que tumble weed at BLK, and NCL is fairly quiet...
This winter is going to take a fair chunk out of all the hard work this summer."

Every airline is out to minimise loss this winter,B.A,RYR,EZY,Flybe etc, so why are suggesting that Jet2.com should not batten down the hatches on all the hard work this summer( i.e profits ) and keep it in the bank ? Are they doing anything that the others aren't ?

You don't have the full day to day financial picture..none of us do...but I do know this.... the Jet2.com charter a/c down in Stan and Teds is working its nuts off during WO8 ,as are a lot of the other bases a/c. So yes, I can actually believe that margins/yields are up from the charter work and that costs are being contained on the lo-co.

So thanks for the "we're all doomed " Mr Brown, But I guess I will just have to keep turning up, like I have for the past 19 years !!!!!

PS I like the Mad Micks Madness, but hasn't he sold his soul/shares out to the race horses !
