''Some of these services operate as feeders into longer flights. Taken in isolation they are rarely profitable.''

We took a 90nm sector off a competitor which couldn't make a profit from it. We are filling the flights with pax and freight. The difference is that we are part of an alliance and the connections make the route pay.
