When I hear American and European airline bosses whining about the harsh competition from the "Gulf" airlines such as Emirates, Qatar Airways or Etihad, a voice in my head always yells "why don't you just try to give their level of customer experience in the first place before begging your government to help you provide abysmal service".
- AlphaSite 10y agoBecause they don't get special deals on the fuel and huge government loans to get started off (and good locations for hubs).
