From: Joe Curry on 25 Jul 2010 13:31 A good O'Leary interview today. Three interesting points: 1. He predicts that BA / Iberia / American will concentrate more on transatlantic services (at the expense of domestic and short-haul international?) scale back 2. He thinks easyJet will eventually be snapped up by Air France. 3. He promises transatlantic by 2015 if he can source big aircraft cheaply enough. As well as the predictions he criticises Branson, Haji-Ioannou and Carolyn McCall (the new easyJet boss who came from a press job). He describes her as a 'media luvvie'. He thinks that offering standing room on his flights is a non-starter as it would fall foul of the regulatory authorities such as the CAA. He spends his days in the office either looking at the Ryanair calendar or making more noise. His view is that other airlines can't produce cabin crew calendars as their crews are too old. Anyone find the BBC interview link? -- alt.airports.uk.edinburgh, the only non-underground Edinburgh Airport forum with 10.000+ worldwide views per month.
