I love to read how the ""experts" always know everything about how Emirates pay for it's fuel. If only you had to read all the e-mails and memo's about min fuel this and saving fuel that. If we got cheap fuel why don't we tanker on all our sectors? Last month I actually took over 50 tons from Kuwait to Dubai (1.5 hours) to land at max landing weight, does'nt quite compute with your reasoning!
Maybe SAA (and this thread is about SAA is'nt it ?) should stop flying formo flypasts in 340's and 747's at every tinpot parade, get managers who actually manage and stop trying to screw the airlines that don't get government aid!
By the way, SAA lost money on the Dubai route (767 years ago) but Emirates now do 5 flights daily to SA!

Isn't SAA code sharing on the (5) Emirate flights?
