Remember the old day, when fines were imposed on UK airlines.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1583280/Flybe-asked-actors-to-fill-empty-flights.html

US Transatlantic operators are subject to fines for not filling planes to , and most over book to keep the competition at bay and pu them on next flight.

Price fixing is not knew, would be nice to know how EZJ and RYA price fix :) on certain routes to remove competition?

Norwegian share were hit yesterdya by a 20% decrease due to being unable to fill planes. So much for havig big jets , and so much for IAG holding 4% of there stock.

There will always be a need for small regional carriers. What is the fine for not filling a plane to 85% capacity?

Nor can an airline buy Maxs that an airline as just cancelled 190 of them due to its technical failure, which it as not sorted out still.

Boeing as serious problems with that plane and I for one would never get on one of them until they rectify it.

It also does not follow that you need a plane that carry more than 100 people, its not like they are full to capacity.

So much for IAG BA, they just took at 15% hit in there 4 holding in Norwegian airshuttle holdings, nice to see Walsh cock up again

volcano, shows what chaos Trump causes , they are burying the wrong president today.

Aapologies, I read it as 3 , just noted T Row did other yesterday, need new glasses.

Markets in free fall at Trump antics with T May tear world economy apart

How many RNS today is that now 2 or 3

Removing the CEo can not change the econimc situation the Country is in and how Airlines are effectd by the shambolic house of commons, which always leads to Finanial Institutions bieng given a free riegn to bob investors of pensions investment and savings.

In 1985 a Uk government set about ripping up the Financial services industry , in which it allowed any tom dick and harry to sell anything. It led to the PPI scandal, pension scandals and in 1985 the Life assurance industry stated it would result in losing over 250+ life assurance companys and ethical investment houses.

Today, the Airline industry as followed that path, by allowing so called capitalism to rip apart and snatch asssets of airlines to the big players and Hedge funds.

Just take a look at whatMAEL, GREYBULL, and Trancontinental Aviation did to Monarch , MAEL, Greybull Trancontinental all are part of the Paradise leaks that show up how Monarch were destroyed.

FLYBE can survive the CEO cant change the siutation above, and if proof is needed of Board room battels, look at Stobart court cases that lay open the illicit practices that maay have taken place at board level

Most of what I held in shares is in Cash and Gold.

Been holding Indivior for 6 months,so well down, but current price seems ? good to average down.

A few shares are being attacked on the back of Brexit carp.

$5 1 billion is what GSK have agreed for the purchase of Tesaro.Said to be approx £ 4 billion,with the US $ coming under increased pressure, is it likely the purchase price could end up more like £.3.5 billion or less?

And then

AstraZeneca has a lot riding on Lynparza (olaparib). Following a major clinical setback with its PD-L1 inhibitor Imfinzi (durvalumab?), the British pharma and Merck & Co. teamed up in a deal worth potentially $8.5 billion centered on testing combinations of Lynparza and immuno-oncology drugs.

While not focused on combos, SOLO-1 underscores how Lynparza's label could further expand. The drug holds indications for maintenance treatment of adults with recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancers who are in a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy, as well as adult BRCA-mutated advanced ovarian cancer who have been treated with three or more prior lines of chemotherapy.

In a statement announcing the new data, Roy Baynes, chief medical officer at Merck Research Laboratories, said his company is working "as quickly as possible" with regulators to get Lynparza approved as first-line maintenance therapy.

Took out competitors like AZN , BMS etc.

GSK know how important the pipeline is and how adavnced it is. Study Brac Gene anbd Breat Ovarian, its a massive opportinty to move aheaad of others

They may be more than happy with a UK based short hual company, that feeds into there other interests, no least Spaceport, Delta AF KLM,.. Easy for Branson to do it with Flybe and , flybe then have much bigger allainces with Delta AF KLM, or Branson might just want to rebrand it Virgin Flyb.
