Tears were literally rolling down my cheeks to read in the Times on Thursday that with a small drop in capacity BA's load factor has gone up. Even with Walsh talking the business down, the opposite happens.
Correct, load factors have risen. But what have all these people paid for their tickets??!! Airlines are dropping prices just to get people on the planes. A full plane doesn't mean a profit! Load factors are up but yields are down.
