This is a lose/ lose proposition. I understand the sentiment, but forcing masks will have the opposite effect.

There will be conflict regardless mask or no mask requirement.

If the mask worked, no one in Asia would ever become sick. They've been wearing them for years.

Booked is one thing. How many show is another.

I had 182 booked to Los Angeles. A third no showed. About half no showed for the return trip.

Is NK being forced to refund that or issue a travel credit?

Also the yield is probably horrendous

Those numbers are adjusted as pax cancels or get rebook. So if 10 pax cancels now (for tomorrow’s fight), that number would drop. Which tells me, if it’s booked to 127, those people either want to go or didn’t want to or can’t cancel / rebook.

That Senecacaptain fellow who constantly throws shade on the LCC model posted this gem. I’m sure blocking the middle seat won’t hurt the legacies, lol

Sir, I am just posting articles about impact to the industry. Nothing against any particular model or company.

My apologies

i don’t think 70% is anywhere near our break even point, and NK is probably one of the few airlines that could run 120 pax on a 320 and still at least tread water without increasing ticket prices.

We could probably do that or come close at 90-100 per 320 which is only 3 people in each row of six. That’s if previous break even load reports are accurate and our contract is indeed cost neutral.
