Good story, thanks for the post.

Sounds like the folks overseas know how to choke a golden goose too!

Unfortunately, this thread will go nowhere because people on this board do not care (nor probably even know) about foreign airlines.

I've tried int'l threads before w/o luck. Too bad, because some of these airlines should eventually own our legacy carriers (after the 24.9% law is tossed).

Ya think people would be interested in prospective employers, no?
