It’s good to hear an airline making positive announcements.

EI-BUD:

GSM were looking not for business investment, remember they are a seriously cash rich organisation, but a business partner. Bit of a difference there, no?

What makes you think the JET2 and GSM are on the edge? More so than Aer Lingus, who lets be honest, almost went to the wall a few years back and had to re-brand and seriously down size!

There are many airlines out there that we have no real financial knowledge of and as Leeds App. says, only the beancounters know. There is a lot of "my company is better than yours" manhood swinging going on out there, but after yesterday – that’s all it ever will be – talk!

Facebovveredlook:

I’d bet that JET2 and GSM have a very similar business model to XL. Both have their own holiday company, both offer flights only and both accept business from holiday companies.

Big difference between us and XL, lower overheads and far less competition! How many airlines operated from LGW and MAN to the same destinations???

Good luck to all – I just hope I have a job over the winter.
