Given that most guys on here welcome a large variety of tails lined up at T2 it has an inherent danger here. It was the same capitalism that created the Alliances which saw QANTAS, Air Canada and Cathay disappear without losing the ability to carry passengers from MAN. Great for the travelling public though.
Completely agree with the latter, great news for the public.
However, in the long term, if EK do push out a lot of the carriers it will become more of a monopoly going East than a competitive market.
With QR, EY, BA, AY, LH, AF, KL, SK, SQ etc. still at the airport, I cannot see that happening any time soon...
