Thank you Betty Girl,
I think you hit the nail on the head, people are allowed an opinion without being accused of trolling.
I can understand BA's decisions, why not create a new cheap fleet, imagine the cost savings which will only get bigger as the fleet grows. We all know that the economy will not recover for many years to come and so making the all important cost savings now may very well protect from future bankruptcy!
Everyone is cutting costs because they have to, that is why friends and people close to me are giving up flying altogether, not only from MF.
Best of luck to all
