@Pierce: Asante but is it official (29 May). I think they may push it to 3 June (Friday) then the directors can fly straight to Mombasa.

@ Impunity: They have 2 SAABs which they kept after the Douala 737 crashed & the Embraers were delayed. The SAABs were used for Kisumu & Mombasa. The sold their airbuses many,many years ago. KQ is an all-Boeing fleet except for the E-190s.

Yep... KQ has 3 E-170s (not the larger 190s)...

Would you say you were never warned.

It aint really a loss. If u nderstand what unrealised fuel hedging costs means.
But we are buying big tym.

Am not trying to look down on anybody and if I do,I apologize in advance.

When someone says the unrealized hedge loss of Sh 7.5 billion by KQ is only for records sake,I see a desperate person who is willing against will that KQ is still viable and financially strong simply because he holds a huge lot of the same.

Sample this:

Mr. Richard Nuttal,the KQ airline&rsquo;s Commercial director,tendered his resignation on Thursday. He quit a day before the announcement of the financial results. Sources said the director was sacked after he differed with the management over the rationale of the fuel hedging process that has hurled the airline into deep financial mess. (Source: Local Media)

Wishing away losses does not make them go away. Count your losses in KQ and run to a favorable counter when you still can.

@Hi-lo

Closing your eyes to the truth won&rsquo;t make it go away,neither is throwing good money at bad money.

Someone once said,They walk among us,the problem is that they portend to give advice,never want to learn from past mistakes,but the worst part is that they reproduce.

@ Surealligator



Don&rsquo;t be too hash on Hi-lo.


@ Statboy


The world's airlines will collectively lose $9 billion this year &mdash; nearly double the previous projections &mdash; and face a slow recovery as the economic crisis saps air travel and cargo demand,an industry body warned today.


The International Air Transport Association,which represents 230 airlines worldwide,increased its loss estimate from the $4.7 billion it forecast in March,reflecting a 'rapidly deteriorating revenue environment.'


Things can only get worse in the case of KQ.


Recovery would start maybe five years from now if not ten.



Stay young,keep your wheels in motion.

Where do you fall?
