And this whole argument about getting Airbus slots, Avianca already flys the 320 variant and has done business with Airbus for years. You guys kill me, you're never going to fly anything larger than 220's unless someone decides to acquire you.
Investors aren’t throwing money into the operation. There hasn’t been a single investment since the Series B round mid last year which was the main financing round. There are however plenty of people lined up who want to be investors.
I also never said the carrier as a whole is making money, but the vast majority of routes are profitable on an individual operational standpoint. No startup airline is profitable until they hit the point of critical mass where the overhead cost of upper management and the back end of the operation is being paid for by the operation as a whole.
David has a 20+ year relationship with Airbus, they will make room for him and if you don’t believe that then you really don’t understand the interconnection the industry has. The industry is more than just the United States. There are carriers all around the world that are facing issues where they deferring delivery of aircraft.
Again Spirit opens and cuts routes all the time. Your acting like they don’t.
Again you have no clue what your talking about when it comes to Breeze.
