Terminal still not ready....might not be opened on Tuesday by UK.... Not the first time a KE prez has "opened" a project that wasn't ready! KPC did that with Kibaki who commissioned a pipeline/expansion that was anything but ready. http://www.thezimbabwean...a-day-kibaki-was-duped/[/quote] Never happened as expected...only 1 live flight was done...failed dramatically back to the drawing board... possunt quia posse videntur

Stock is now below that price not because of splits or bonuses, having done a rights issue! Learn from history. History says that airlines in general and KQ in particular are bad investments. Be smart. Life is short. Live passionately.

Be smart. @sparkly.. U forgot to tell us that it also traded at KES 126.. To each his own, if airlines were bad investments, then planes wldnt be built, we wldnt have airports.. Seems simplistic, but it is altruist. It depends on the strategy of the airline, otherwise, people like Branson and Buffet wldnt own Virgin & Jetways

NetJets Unrest Puts Warren Buffett in a Rare Pinch Pilots Protest Against Pay, Benefits at Berkshire Hathaway’s NetJets "In the case of NetJets, the pressure to complete the turnaround of a business Mr. Buffett once called his “number one worry” is now spilling into public view." "In the 16 years that Berkshire has owned NetJets, the jet operator has never paid its owner a dividend, and its net worth is considerably less than the $725 million Berkshire paid for it in 1998" This was from a 2015 article. WB would have been better off putting the money in the bank!"worsened amid extended contract negotiations with multiple unions representing pilots, flight attendants, mechanics and others. NetJets, based in Columbus, Ohio, has about 6,200 employees, a majority of whom belong to unions." "NetJets took a major hit during the financial crisis as wealthy clients cut back on private flying, surviving only because Berkshire guaranteed its $1.9 billion debt load." 1) NetJets isn't an 'airline' as much as Uber [which owns planes]. 2)NetJets is a pain for WB. Not one of his best performers. Too much drama. 3) No dividends. It has had negative cashflow in many years. 4) Despite all this is has a POSITIVE equity/capital whereas KQ has NEGATIVE capital. "Everyone but shareholders made money off KQ." True or False? Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett
