Falling Leaf...So this is all about the price of oil is it?????
Why then was the price of airfares in comparison to the average wage so much higher before the advent of the 747?
The airlines got on the band wagon and trued to do the aviation equivalent of bulk billing....As I said this is not about the price of oil but the way in which airlines and ours in particular are structured....
It is an inverted pyramid and needs and enema to turn it upside down to where there are more indians than chiefs....
Did the airlines make a profit when there were far less people flying and airfares were higher......YES and the price of oil was much lower....instead of using aircraft that are so big they have their own postcode maybe it's time to have smaller aircraft and higher fares.....
It looks like Stationair8 is the type of passenger that likes to be fussed over and fantasize about some young asian girl.....nothing more needs to be said.
