Yes sgt.culpepper, I wondering if anyone would see the irony of all this gleeful hand-rubbing.
Over the years, when other companies opened competing services on Aer Lingus' routes, or even if Aer Lingus opened a new route (e.g. LCY) the howls of anger were deafening.
The cry went up..."How dare a company like ALT use it's competitive muscle to fare dump on some poor souls just trying to make a buck and provide some options to the punter!"
Well, here we are, the names are different but the scenario is exactly the same...and the hyposcrisy is breathtaking.
Those who once avowed the protectionist philosophy toward the smaller companies are now baying for the blood of poor little GO.
Basically the rule seems to be...it's an open market...just as long as Aer Lingus isn't in the equation.
I'm sure the culprits will spend the next few posts trying to explain to me how this is different and how I've misread them...but sorry guys, too late, your mask just slipped.
