WorldTraveler said:YOU made the statement that DL overpaid for Pan Am and was a failure with Song.
And yet YOU want to return to the DXB issue as soon as I remind you that AA has been in full-scale retreat at JFK even with a TW acquisition.
Two days ago (+/-) you were telling us the refinery was a financial disaster despite the fact that there are multiple articles showing that it is profitable and is saving DL on fuel costs.
DL is pulling out of DXB because it doesn't have enough connections despite operating the route from the world's largest hub.
Yes, I want another round so that you can tell us what
You are hell bent on trying to prove me and DL wrong even while refusing to admit that other carriers have made one major strategic mistake after another.
Given your knack for trying to argue points that are completely inaccurate, yes, by all means, let's go as many rounds as you want.
You sir, a a FRAUD and a LIAR!!! You are a poor excuse for a human being and a pathetic excuse of a missionary. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
Nowhere in this thread have I mentioned PA or Song or JFK or DLs refinery.
What are you smoking?
Or did you forget your medication?
Show me where in the discussion about DL leaving DXB I have said anything except for the fact that Emirates has an advantage via subsidies, specifically paying little fees/taxes for carrying connecting passengers as opposed to O/D passenger fees/taxes that DL has to pay DXB.
You, an alleged expert in the airline, a veteran of 22 years (that's a career spanning 3 decades) are the one that made the hilarious comment that DL is canceling the route because it has no feed at DXB. And for all your *cough* industry knowledge *cough* , you didn't even see this coming.
Another round, champ?
