It's a news story about airlines. And that's the point of this forum.

The European airline industry certainly doesn't lack the history of going bust and sticking it to others too with a shell game of sorts. Swiss and Belgian carriers come to mind, but there are others too.

Stuffing more flights into supposedly LCC units is just another form of shell game. Doesn't it stick it to employees and customers too?
