Emirates Airline boss says US rivals 'need to grow up' and end the nastiest feud in the airline industry
Emirates Airline president Sir Tim Clark believes a truce in his company's feud with the US trio of American, Delta, and United Airlines could be very beneficial for everyone involved. At the same time, the long-time airline boss decried the tactics employed by his rivals. (www.businessinsider.com) More...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Someone with "Sir" preceding their name lecturing others. Who would have thought that?
i agree.
however, clark only has to answer to Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, US3 have to answer to hundreds of thousands who want their dividend checks to go up in value.
if the US3 investors don't get their way, you're only going to lose your job, they aren't going to chop your head off or anything like that.
oh.
wait.

When you can't prevail using logic and intellect, then you turn to insults and innuendo. Clark sounds more like the whiny three year old he accuses US3 of being using his playground insults here. Must be hurting his bottom line pretty bad, so lets keep shutting him out!
Tired of these foreign airlines and manufacturers, who have received massive government substities over their entire business lives, ie Airbus, ME3 and Bombidier, complaining about US airline/manufacturers who do not receive ANY US government substities.
Clark would love to have US carriers do his door to door deliveries in the USA after he has sucked the considerable long haul profits out of travelers pockets. The ME3 built their airlines and continue to run them with money received from Americans by overcharging for oil using a cartel.
He should be told by the US to go pound sand (there are ample opportunities) and that the America is tired of unbalanced trade deals that hurt the American economy and people.

It is difficult to see how he plans to sustain his business plan when the new long range twins can provide cheaper point to point service without a stop and plane change in Dubai. The answer is not to play his game but to bypass him from US hubs on the most high traffic routes leaving him the higher cost of servicing less popular destinations.
Let Trump fix this
