Zip - interview with Smith
Saw this on Newsworld. Smith said they were flying 60% loads on Sunday which frankly seems pathetic given they inhereted booked pax from AC. He said this was great for Zip. Smith was asked to explain the difference between all the new brands. He explained that Tango was a point to point with no possibility of connections - clearly this is false as connections are possible to other Tango flights (YWG-YYZ-YOW). I suspect he meant no interlining but it is not what he said. When talking about Zip he mentioned that it was a product that did not feature meals, exec class or LOUNGES. I wonder if this is a slip or if lounge access will be chopped soon - it did not appear in the initial chart in Enroute in August. He really ought to be more careful when he speaks about these things.
