Haven't watched it. Has somebody posted it anywhere for people who aren't U2.com subscribers to watch it?
So....that video of Edge playing guitar. Thoughts anyone?
looks like the edge playing guitar to me .
sounds u2-ish.
Hey Ian, is this true?
Largely. But airlines like Ryanair and Southwest have proven it's entirely possible to make money in an all-economy, low fares layout.
Huh. The way some people in the rail community talk, you'd think air travel is an endless stream of profits and there's no way rail could ever viably compete with air's profitability on routes like Wellington-Auckland or Sydney-Brisbane.
I suppose i should add that most routes where you'll be getting any decent business class yield aren't really competitors to rail routes - think Sydney-Perth, Auckland-LAX-London etc.
Right. Well then, that changes things a bit. The context of the discussion was why state governments had been quite happy to run their own railways but never established their own airlines. The point of the person claiming that economy is a huge lossmaker offset by high yield busines travel was that since most intrastate travel is not business (e.g. Dubbo to Sydney or Mildura to Melbourne is not comparable to Sydney to Melbourne), running an airline would simply be an exercise in losing heaps of money on economy class travellers with not enough business travellers to offset it.
I might have to go watch my satellite porn and get my warm front going don't you think Ian??
I thought you'd missed that
i love it when the kiwi/aussie crowd goes to bed before me
