Is this transport company really making money...I was scheduled to travel with it last week..and as fate would have had it,the flight was massively overbooked by around 70-80 people. Well we were taken to Panari FB and each given $300 or $500 voucher and a 3 min international call to notify of your delay..so me and my 3 other pals hit the streets.

This past weekend am told same thing happened and it's been going on for the last 2 weeks or so..now my ticket was slightly less than £400 and they refunded me $300,now with the cost of fuel rising,stiff competition by other carriers..cargo sales dwindling at an all time low..i can't see how KQ is making money..someone please correct me...

How many times have you flown in the past decade??????

Which is more dirty,the pig or Kenyan mp?

@ Mukiha

True..my point is are they really breaking even..some time ago Boeing overhauled the 777 - 300ER to accommodate more MTOW (maximum take off weight) currently standing at 750,000 kgs..this is obviously to give more room for cargo..but KQ has not been able to capitalise in the fuselage change..obviously some factors are beyond their control..i think they need to come up with a strategy fast...

In regards to customer service..well that's a whole different topic altogether but it's rather obvious they have been experiencing lean times as can be demonstrated by the kind of meals they serve..

Myks & Impunity..

Ha!!

@Ricdees

I travell with them every time and I have never had the good luck of missing my flight.

How often has it happened to you.


I guess if you can't win with facts,you can always pen bile-laced,xenophobic rants to distract everyone.

@ Ric Dee,

The next time you think of talking about airline business and how they make money,get your facts together. And by the way,KQ doesn't have any B777-300ER but B777-200ER. The capacity on that equipment is 322. There is no upright thinking Airline Revenue Management proffessional will overbook that equipment by more than 10% bearing in mind that these big equipments operate longhauls. And again,unless you don't know,u might have bought that seat at GBP400 (that means you were travelling from or returning to UK),someelse,still in economy class as you,bought his/hers at double that amount. Having said that,the 80 people you are talking about is a case of cancelled and compined flights!! Mark you,KQ is the only Airline I know which has posted some sensible profits!!! check around before u start bluffing!!
