FT article on Go/EasyJet merger
mentions BA throughout. But the brilliant (brilliant in the British meaning, not the American) quotable line is:
"The traditional economics of the European airline business depend on seating people who will pay £500 return for an hour's flight and a quarter-bottle of champagne ... along with Americans collecting frequent flyer points, misled by codeshares into thinking their European flight is with American or United."
