thumbs up, mainly from lawyers and bankers.
Whoever at SIA thinks allowing in flight mobile voice calls is a good idea is a Grade AAA pillock.
That depends how big a share of the revenue/yield pie comes from the lawyers and bankers, doesn't it?
If they form a big part of the yield pie and they can charge $xxx per hour for billable work to their clients by making inflight calls, then SIA would be insane to let a competitor gain competitive advantage by providing this facility, when they do not. Remember that these type of companies have corporate accounts and block bookings, they are not casual or passing trade.
You guys may well be small fry and easy sacrifices.
Sorry, but that's the way airline marketeers think and money talks.
