Or is it just another urban legend that airlines make no profit?
Why do people continue to finance them?
Sounds like an urban legend to me, but what do I kno?
Indeed; see Warren Buffet in the 22 November 1999 issue of Fortune magazine.
In one word - glamour. People invest in airlines, and spaaace, for
glamour, not for profit.
That is of course the reason why no-profit pricing continues to exist in
the airline industry - the extra, nan-balance-sheet, profit of glamour.
