@GarryKieran Ryanair on the up, Aer LIngus on the way down but where do they and other companies stand in CX full report http://www.cxi.ie.
@McWhirterAlex Good to see AirCanada starting Toronto-Berlin. Germany’s capital neglected by Luftnansa. It needs international links. @TheLocalGermany.
@paulbuckl Our much-loved Christmas video from 2015 was awarded at the #KinsaleSharks at the weekend. Great result for @RadicalDublin and @AerLingus.
@skift ‘People in Europe are obsessed with the dollar. Brexit will probably cost us half a million visitors.’ -CEO US Travel Assoc. #SkiftForum.
@theAPEXassoc “Consistency of #PaxEx, sleep, minimizing stress are top 3 priorities for our business class pax,” says @AirCanada’s B. Smith #skiftforum.
@theAPEXassoc “Geography, elapsed flying time & product offering”: Why US pax should fly @AirCanada for international routes, says B. Smith #skiftforum.
@thepointsguy Arne- Travel is dependent/ a part of 10% of the global economy. We need to be inclusive- not driving people away like #Brexit #skiftforum.
