At one point, there were just a handful, if any, #A380s in the skies. However, the type has since made a comeback and is even set to be flying with a new #airline soon. (2/5)
@globalairlines founder and chief executive James Asquith shared the following about his company's plans:

India's second largest #Airline is Shutting Down. But Why? Let's understand the economics of Airlines threadbare.

Airlines Business Model Explained in 2 minutes👇
Go First has yesterday announced that they are cancelling flights scheduled for 3rd/4th May

Wadia group is winding down the business after incurring 1000s of crores of losses.

But Why was India's second largest airline making huge losses?

Had to dig through this.
I found that even Indigo (controlling 55% market share) made a loss of Rs. 1200 Crore in first 9 months of FY23 in spite of revival in Air Travel).

If market leader is making losses in a buoyant travel market

then WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF THIS INDUSTRY?

In that period, we suffered derision, insult & indifference, but still we battled

But, as with all things standards-making, as we discovered via @Standards4EU, the path was never straight

However, we created the most dynamic draft #Standard seen to date

#Dogma!

I've had some very clear views since the beginning of the year on the challenges facing Travel and the difficulties ahead. I've taken a cautionary approach based on research

2. #Travel? #Holidays? #COVID19? #Brexit?

#Dogma!

I also happen to believe that if @GOVUK & #TravelIndustry go into a huddle with each other, on issues that directly affect #Consumers, then we should read/hear what they have discussed & have decided

theguardian.com/politics/2012/…
3. #Travel? #Holidays? #COVID19? #Brexit?

#Dogma!

For many years I have passionately advocated #ConsumerRights & believe that @GOVUK should advocate those rights incl taking unilateral action to enforce provisions where they think the law's been broken

@LBC @NickFerrariLBC

Thnx 4opp 2talk abt current #Airport #Airline #Travel chaos; not just UK prob; it extends across #Europe

Many reasons & blame abound but the return to normality was always going 2B problematic.

#Brexit transferred 261/2004 Rights; @CAA_UK should enforce!
2. #Travel? #Holidays? #COVID19? @LBC

Key Q: @GOVUK claim they'd warned #TravelIndustry, concerned that they: "Seriously oversold flights & holidays relative to their capacity".

@grantshapps publish meetings, minutes & warnings; let's see the detail!......
3. #Travel? #Holidays? #COVID19? @LBC @NickFerrariLBC

....It is this use of language, by all parties, that's designed to present their position that creates confusion in #Consumer understanding and indeed their expectations

It's all very good having high expectations, but...

During this #COVID I am going to create a rolling thread about key issues and articles of interest, just so as you can see the evolution toward a return to normality in 2022, 2023, 2024 or 2025; according to predictions by #Aviation!
2. #Travel? #Holidays? #COVID19?

Interesting article about #staycations and their price!!

The attitude of some UK h/makers, is I'm afraid, a common feature found in holidays abroad. I've heard many a tale about the Master vs Serf behaviour of some Brits! independent.co.uk/voices/holiday…

It's not done with us yet:

"...hard to anticipate what the timeline will be for the expected shift of COVID-19 to endemicity..."

For many years I have been commenting abt the air we breathe on #aircraft and have been and continue to be politically active on this very important issue for #Passengers & #Aircrew. Image

This continuous thread will be added to as & when I discover new issues that #Consumers should be aware of. At this stage I will simply point you to my new book: Gaspers; a potential source of information! amazon.co.uk/Gaspers-passen…

Regarding #airline #bailouts and #climate conditions, the French case is often referred to as a positive example. But if you look more closely, the ecological conditions of the #AirFrance bailout are only weak measures.

Let us explain – a thread. 👇
bit.ly/3g2IozD
1) The conditions are not legally binding.

“France's green requests are a first but we had non-binding commitments for years and airline pollution ballooned,” says @AndrewTMurphy.
theguardian.com/business/2020/…
2) Air France's CO2 emissions of PER PASSENGER from domestic flights are to be reduced by 50% by 2024, overall -50% by 2030. This leaves out a large part of the emissions* and also allows ABSOLUTE emissions to continue to rise.

The bad. 😈☠️ More and more airlines are asking for unconditional bailouts - and more and more are receiving taxpayer money without #social or #climate conditions. We must stop this for the sake of our future and #ClimateJustice!

The ugly. 🤑💩 the bailout plea from #RichardBranson "proves that there is no one more shameless". Let's #SavePeopleNotBillionaires! #BuildBackBetter #JustRecovery
