Stay vigilant, Rónán. O’Leary isn't going to give up. Either way, nice Christmas 2012 ahead!

If it were an airline that were to buy us I think a lot of us have been talking about Lufthansa being an ideal owner for us. Etihad would be the next best choice, but we've a feeling they might steal our Heathrow slots. We're currently the 3rd biggest owner of slots in LHR after BA and LH, as EY are after slots we're a giant target but that's yet to be seen.

 

As for a non airline investor, some of the pilots have an idea up our sleeves for that... :Whistle: :Secret:

Indeed he isn't, but we're up for the fight and we're still the only airline to go up face to face against FR and not lose, now if we could only figure out how to win we'd be sorted... :Thinking:

 

On a side note, we've just sent our our Christmas Video, Happy Christmas to everyone from all of us at EI;

 

Regards,

Which reminds me of a true story:

A man is alone in an airport restaurant.

A beautiful woman walks in and sits down at the table next to him.

He decides because she's wearing a uniform, she's probably an off-duty

flight attendant.

So he decides to have a go at picking her up by identifying the

airline she flies for, thereby impressing her greatly.

 

He leans across to her and says the British Airways motto :

 

'To Fly. To Serve'.

 

The woman looks at him blankly.

He sits back and thinks up another line.

He leans forward again and delivers the Air France motto:

 

'Winning the hearts of the world'.

 

Again she just stares at him with a slightly puzzled look on her face.

Undeterred, he tries again, this time saying the Malaysian Airlines motto:

 

'Going beyond expectations'.

 

The woman looks at him sternly and says:

'What the ********** do you want?'

 

'Ah!' he says

 

"Ryanair".

In fairness to most of the staff though at Ryanair, they're nice folk when you're not dealing with them as a customer...

I am going to have to remember that quote... :yahoo:

It's not really a true story. :smile:

The scary part is that Ro reacted to you as if it were and totally understandable. :Cuppa:
