congratulations Carol! You've been invaluable for the SPG forum and I'm sure you'll do a great job here! But I'm sure we are going to miss you over at SPG, be sure to check in from time to time!^

My sentiments exactly! Yes, we will all miss Randy (but I'm sure he'll still be watching/posting/lurking over us ), and I'm so very glad that the 'hand over' is to someone we all know will continue to keep FT as the premier place for travel communication.
Good Luck Carol--

Couldn't think of anyone better! Perfect choice, Congratulations Carol. ^

(And with BA flying non-stop again to SAN, you might see some of us again, sooner than you think. )

Congratulations -- but a word of caution: The difficult time will be when the private equity firm is "cleaning up" IB's books to try to flip it. That's when short term decisions will overrule any long term considerations. And that time will come as all private equity firms run that way, sort of by definition.

Someone bought out IB? I am confused but I don't keep up on FT much except with my FT friends.

Congrats again Carol!
