Assuming they manage to do that, I think that this strategy could be successful... ^ Of course, it's all about implementation.
you missed the point. the point was that Jet Airways did not do something innovative with keeping the brands separate. It was not by design, but because of legal and regulatory issues at the time the buyout happened.
