Yes, UA is in financial trouble at the moment, but they are making headway. I don’t think this would classify as a big risk, Kabir. The reason I say this is because United usually has very strong load factors on all of their Asian routes, which is why they were hit so hard by SARS. They depend very heavily on these routes. Suffice it to say that it may be these very routes along with their LHR slots that are keeping them afloat at the moment. Besides, it’s not like they are going to fly there non-stop from, say SFO or ORD, or something. It’s just a continuation flight, in which 2 or 3 HKG flights will be able to feed the one flight from HKG to HCM. I just don’t see these factors as being high risk. Tell me “UA is beginning daily non-stop service into HCM from SFO, LAX and ORD” and then I’d say it would be very high risk.

true…..there most load will come from HK not HCM. I dont think HCM has enough passengers who could afford to goto USA yet.

I know that. I do design liveries you know.

I’m just saying that the choice of colour here is not particulalry the best. The blue is too pale and looks washed out.
The cheatleine looks like it’s come from the 70’s

“you can tell an easyjet on finals from miles away! And thats exactly what the livery is meant to do.”

i was commenting on that, that liveries are not meant to be like which we can see and spot from miles away.

and yes Air Deccan’s livery is nothing good but it can be termed as better from some of the others.

EasyJet, Jetblue, Southwest

need I go on?

you call EasyJet and Southwest viabrent???

Jet Blue yes it is above the average LOCO c/s.

It was in jest.

Hope I didn’t offend you, it was not intended so
