On several recent occasions Mr. Carty has bemoaned the fact that airlines in general have added too many seats. His prediction was/is that this was going to have an adverse reaction to airline profitability.
Could it be that this latest move is a way to generate a positive media response in the face of excess capacity, and that he's not as altruistic as he would like to make it appear?
