Half Bread is Better than None
If you bother to do the "maths" properly and take the "package" in its entirety, it is definately "NOT THE BEST IN THE GULF" as is being boldly trumpeted on this forum.
Anyway, it is better than nothing. And yes, it will not stem the loss of people who want to leave. The lack of respect, abitrary way in which people are treated, utter contempt, and disregard for proper norms are not things that any amount of money can gloss over.
To each his own, QR will continue to be playing catch up to the other majors in the region and beyond. And only a drastic total cultural and corporate change will make a difference..
Alas, that will not happen, at least not in this lifetime....
