PONTIUS'S PA

Good to see someone giving him support.
But do you know tha QR only operates 3 destinations that are profitable.
Did you know that QR has never made a profit in any financial quarter since the introduction of Airbus.
Exact figures are not available but what are you praising him for.
The truth is it is being run in an artificial economy where they are trying to stimulate the economy by opening it up to the world.
The stimulus is QR. There is nothing wrong with this obviously, but you put any one in his position with a budget of his and it really cant be that hard.
You cant judge him on what the airline has become as no airline in the world could survive like QR. Other airlines have balance sheets and need to report to shareholders. Here is different.
And everyone knows he would not last 10 minutes in the real world.
