The top commercial guy has gone, there is no replacement, and BN says he is hoding the commercial fort along with the Finnish strategy guy. BN has no commercial nous and does not understand that side of the business. His experience is all operational (he joined as COO) so looks like the sales and marketing side of the business will go to buggery until top commercial guy is replaced.
However, with turnover of staff recently GF will start to get a reputation like that of QR and be unable to attract good people.

So BN has no commercial experience!well that is a coincidence because he also has no operations experience.The strategy guy has no commercial experience either in fact i doubt he has much experience in anything!!!!So where does that leave Gulfair?Frightening thought,with the two of them running the show the future doesnt look so rosey.Chickens without heads spring to mind.

GF Annual Report
Hey all - tiny bit off topic, but does anyone know if Gulf Air still publish annual reports available for viewing on their website?
I have definitely seen Annual Reports being put on their site in the past - might have been 2 or 3 years ago though.

One of the Arabic newspapers quoted that GF lost B.D. 100M in 6 months this year. I wonder how he managed to get such info (and how true that is) given the sensitivity of this issue.

A pilots advice to Gulf Air
Kick the tosser out, he is a bloody washer. See what his mentor Andre Dose did , he almost destroyed the new Swiss and sold it to Lufthansa. Wasn't BN a Flight Attentand before? He is a tosser and GF should look forward to get a real management before it is too late.

the fact that he is bringing in old hardware as part of the expansion strategy says it all. we are tired of machines that keep us on edge with unservicabilities. the a321s have been an added headache to all which will add to gf's woes rather than enhance the busy summer schedule.
