I saw this week's "Monday Morning Quarterback" spoke of something exciting being announced later this week. I was hoping the Slogan Department was going to announce a new inspiring slogan. I was hoping for something to record management's progress at HPE talks, "Time to Grin" perhaps?
Imagination my disappointment if the announcement is 3 new destinations and the loss of 3 crappy destinations....

Or, maybe LH will launch a DUS flight, and CX will put a flight # on it meaning BRU or CPH can take its place.

But in a strategy quite unique to aviation the company plans on not charging the shareholder for these acquisitions but instead charge their staff, as well as charging staff for fuel hedging gambles, currency hedging gambles, cartel fines, cadet pilot training and management bouneses whilst simultaneously asking the said staff to work harder.

Not to mention tons of long runways, efficient traffic flow and great ATC, generally good weather, modern efficient terminals (as opposed to the DC-8 days setup at places like LAX), a true gateway to the Americas and other carriers, centrally located, a fair bit of operations but not all that busy compared to NY or SFO, plenty of room for expansion, business friendly climate, you name it.
A REAL win.
