I'm sure it would be great if airlines were selling every seat below cost - although not sure about the future of the airline industry in that case.
Some info on KQ's track record of profitability here:

KQ not being profitable doesn't necessarily mean we can conclude their tickets are fair or under-priced. It could also be a sign of mismanagement of the company and too high expenditure.
Actually the strike at NBO airport the past days are partially rooted in employees of Kenya Airports thinking KQ are being mismanaged and mis-spending funds.
