Spoken too soon.It is already proving a headache. Corrective wave forming. Fibo comes to mind.
Waiting for wave 3,usually the longest and strongest for an exit.

2Q 2013-14 (July-Sep 2013) seems rather muted compared to 2Q 2012-13. Reduced frequencies/capacity to many 'busy' destinations including London - which acts as feeder for Africa traffic - Mumbai and Delhi. These reductions are post-election reductions which means the hurt is real.

Capacity Utilization (PLF) seem to have risen but are they sufficient to offset lower passenger numbers & flights?

At least flights to the Far East (China) picked up where India dropped off. Dubai seems busy & Abu Dhabi is the new kid on the block EXCEPT there will be some cannibalism of Dubai. Etihad (not Emirates Oops! thanks @horton] uses KQ to feed its hub in Abu Dhabi so that is additional business BUT Emirates (via Abu Dhabi) also flies to London, Amsterdam, Mumbai, Delhi and Bangkok which eat into KQ's potential passenger base.

My conclusion based on limited information is that KQ may be on a recovery path but it is nothing to write home about.

d'oh! d'oh! d'oh! Yes, Etihad, and not Emirates, out of AUH. Emirates has no code-share with KQ out of DBX.

Q2 passenger stats are dissapointing...The PLF's are just inline with my estimates...key routes such as those within Africa are struggling...it looks like ET is eating their lunch...with SAA planning to expand within the continent things will get tough..the airline had to cut alot of capacity just to push those PLF's up...thats what I expect from them but thats not what project mawingu is all about...unless KQ made cost savings of around Ksh3-4Bn in H1 03/2014 I wont be shocked to see them report a loss next week.
