Good news indeed, but certainly not the end of the difficult times.
Don’t forget that the CEO is only the head of a team, and our leadership team won’t be in too much of a hurry to change what has been working very well for us under Rod Eddington.
I don’t know anyone in the company who won’t cheer at the thought of Waterside being looked at very closely. It is a widely accepted fact that we are a very mangement heavy company, and most of them are there.
As for shorhaul becoming loco, personally I can’t see it, as it goes against everything that the airline stands for. I can see Club coming off some shorthaul routes, as First has from some longhaul routes. CDG, AMS and FRA are not the routes to take it off though. Whilst we don’t routinely see the 150 in Club that we used to have in the 90s, we still have healthy Club loads on these routes most of the time.
The advent of loco’s has kept BA well and truly on its toes, and made it adapt to a new market, but this has actually benefitted BA in the long-run and todays results hardly suggest that BA are a company in trouble.
By the way I haven’t flown with EI for some time, but I have done so 4 or 5 times and thought they were great.
1L.
Would an all club product at certain times of day to CDG, FRA and AMS work?
