Full revenue tickets to be given priority given that the E190 are smaller especially during the high season.

Mikosz is going to wipe out the loss at the end of this year with these initiatives.

Everything going forward has to be paid for.
If Mikosz doesn't do that KQ will grind to a halt/shut down in 24 months

Buddy tickets are paid for... It's not free and you only fly when the plane is has space if you are an employee you can ask the pilot to give you the jump seat... What's the point of flying a plane with empty seats yet you can get paying employees to fill that...

Told you guys the other year revenue from the buddy system was like 120m...

Now it's 0.

Moving on swiftly a BTW...

@maka why would a KQ staff want to fly haphazardly rather than concentrate on his/her job.. plus stating that revenue would be zero isn’t true. incase the staff genuinely needs to fly, he/she would still pay up at market rate

@maka - Weren't buddy passes being given/sold to "buddies" so it wasn't just the employee BUT potential paying pax?
How much did a buddy pass pax pay?
If a buddy pax is only paying for taxes [which are given to GoK or other jurisdictions] then KQ has no advantage.

Were buddy passes being misused?

Loopholes leading to revenue leakage. It is even better for the plane to fly empty rather than these Ngunze's half baked ideas.

This guy called Mikosz knows exactly the underlying issues affecting the financial performance of the Airline. I wish he continues on this role for 5+ years.

The JURY is out - I said it here.

Quote:
Kenya Airways is interested in the Bombardier CSeries or Embraer’s E2 jet for a short-haul order of 15-20 aircraft, with a decision possibly coming at the end of this year, its chief executive told Reuters on Monday.
