Chris,

First of all compliments that you have the balls to come on the site using your name. (assuming it is you, but reading your response it could be you)

I have been highly critical of JR for a number of reasons but not for one: the intention to invest in aircraft, infrastructure and people. The problem was that they were a broker doing the same thing as any other broker so far only outspending most brokers big time on marketing.

The only thing any broker brings to our industry is the desire for us to lower our prices by being price led instead of quality led and as a consequence the quality and margins in the industry have been going down for years... So I fully agree on your statement about brokers like JR leaving the market:
We genuinely think its right, proper and good news for the industry in the long run.
