No one is taking anything personally,I am just asking that you guys use some common sense. How many airlines do you think these guys have spoken to to an attempt to rescue their business. If you treat every contact as a certainty, and then publish it as such here, you will be sadly disappointed 99%of the time.
The Gulf airlines are seen as having money to burn and there is a steady stream of non Gulf operators who come calling. Lets revisit it in a months time and see if the deal has been done and annouced. I will be the first to apologise if you are right.
