I’m not upset about burning cash, especially if it’s on the not-sexy-but-necessary stuff that will fix some of our issues and give us room to grow. Burning cash because the redundant VP of the Department of Redundancies didn’t know how to read a spreadsheet is…not ideal.
Burning cash in any scenario, especially an airline is never good. Regardless of what it's used for. Bad for all stake holders. Just means the business is broken. Hence why EM is here. Three billion is due in the next few months. Which they plan to pay off. Overall cash will decrease in 2025. Hence why, the biggest expense of buying airplanes will slow down to match retirements. Growth will be done for a while. 8's replacing 700's is not going to cut it. They already announced that the fleet will shrink by 15 by the end of the year. We may find out more next week.
