One of the best inventions of the 20th century was the aeroplane, thanks due to the Wright brothers.
And it really did usher in a whole new era, one that made for faster, safe and efficient travel. Including the added thrill of actually flying through the skies and in the air.
As some song writer put it so very succinctly. "Like a bird in the sky".....
So time passed and the airlines mushroomed, making things better and easier still. And air travel kept on growing, as did the burgeoning travellers..
Now, with the global meltdown, a lot has changed, and possibly will continue to.
So the 'no frills' airlines will now rule the roost, assuming that they have been able to survive it, in the first instance.
As for the others, it really will be a 'wait, watch and see' situation.For so many airlines have already "gone under" or "belly up" however one may prefer to use any particular terminology that fits the situation. Swiss air, Lufthansa, UA and even BA slowly and steadily becoming an endangered, possibly "soon to be exctinct" speicies? Even the thought sounds awful, as one has really and literally grown up with all of these names, logos, concepts, et all....
Yet, "Que sera sera. whatever will be will be, the future's not ours to see" ....applies here, as well as to so many similar businessess, business processes and situations.
One thought uppermost- may the best man/business/airline survive...
