Experts already saying this shouldn't escape the vaccine and they're not overly worried. There wasn't a lot of Delta in SA so they're seeing a similar ramp up we saw.

If ur gonna buy just do it is my GUESS. Once the politicians start calming down we'll be back to "its fine just get vaccinated"

Raging I have no cash on the sidelines. Majority locked up in US shares so can't even move it around ??

Yeah mate it wins if you only care about 1 thing in life, like this virus. Authoritarian behaviour is infectious and once the elected leaders have a precedent they will manufacture any emergency to do as they wish. Patriot act in USA springs to mind, justification was there (911) and they used it to destroy 2 countries and spy on the developed world.

Majority cheered as it happened too.

Group think is the first step to authoritarianism.

Lockdown spread cases over longer time frames, they also built an attitude and behaviours that now mean you have no access to GPS. You now have a telephone consultant. See Germany for what happens when you delay a virus...

Nobody cares... covid!

Also if we'd have listened to governments we WOULDN'T wear masks as they told us they were pointless about 20 times. This virus would be gone had we done nothing and let the young catch it.

Western society is built on the sovereignty of the individual. Remove that you might as well turn to authoritarianism. What makes you think any government official for his degree can make better decisions than you or me? History is clear, hand over power to these morons and they'll never give it back. The problem isn't what's bestits who decides what's best? The answer is Nobody!!!

Suppose anyone travelling to Spain has a passport on their phone anyway but still a pointless exercise.

How the US reacts is likely influemced by how much pressure Biden is under. Their economy is doing well jobs doing well. If he puts brakes on that it might not come bk

As for vaccine chat I think the countries are starting to listen to science and realise the vaccine does f all at restricting spread. 71% of hospitalised people are double jabbed this month. Roughly 80% of positive cases are jabbed. These are doing f'all to help airlines stay covis free

Problem with the US its trapped in this marxist whirlwind, it seems fashionable to behave like you're a terrified child and blame "the right" of Republican states open up Dems are wearing 4 masks and closing the states down. Just needs to be a polarised image. Strange times...

Still seems there's no holder's in IAG, 3% profit and out is the attitude atm

Agreed, I cant be bothered with the testing nonsense so I've not bothered booking this year. I had a cancelled trip to NY and left the money for me and the Mrs on the credit card. I'd have even away before now.

Tbh the industry has banged its head on the door so many times they realised they're wasting their time with this pathetic govt. They've no idea what they're doing and they should never have tried. All we've done is turn a Terrible year into 2 going on 3 Terrible years. The vulnerable could have been protected instead we punished everyone and made a complete erse of it

Reading the daily essays below but did anyone notice ministers are considering scrapping all tests in January to help the industry bounce back.

Apologies if posted before.

Transatlantic*

IAG says close to 2019 levels, looking good...

I think this is common sense but I don't think out government has any. God knows what's coming now.

My aunt is a former employee now retired (before covid) She was contacted by the company with a job offer because they're so short of staff with the volume of flights they're expecting. The punters are coming back!

Just thrown their house at this lol

US Airlines look to be taking a hit in Austria news etc. We'll See in 20 mins

Biggest factor this time is the trans Atlantic routes will be making cash all quarter.

Guess the bottom...

I wonder if this has impacted the SP, doesn't impact the business at all

Coming out the woodwork now

This wave isn't the unvaccinated. The cases among double jabbed is approximately 80% of all positive cases...

It was down 5.6% earlier, recovered 2% just 20 minutes ago.
