This makes perfectly good business sense. All they need to do now is to ensure the aircrafts are in good working order.

not only that, also its imperitive that the crews are motivated to do them,,,,,, wow more india destinations. Is this something to brag about?, me thinks NOT. They make money which = salary paid out monthly. Makes sense to me!!! That a go GF, stratagize by all means.....

GF is not bragging. Increasing India destinations and frequencies is purely a business decision. In fact, GF is looking at making all the India destinations turn around flights for the crews.
I, for one, will not be enjoying crossing the Arabian sea/Indian Ocean evey couple of days. But if it means good business, I will simply do my job.
