I see lots of money losing seats being dumped into questionable markets in our future. But, at least they have hot flight attendants.
Their order book is staggering. And there are 2 more of "them" in the same small area too, plus all of the Asian and Indian hyper growth airlines. Everyone thinks they need 1000 A380's to rule the world, especially when they are dual subsidized.

One day they will choke on their fantasy "Heros of Farnsborough" order books. Until then, they are the most serious threat to the very existance of our entire industry that we've ever seen.
