You can still be elitist by thinking that you are too good to fly with budget airlines.

Other budget airlines have succeeded where BA failed. A budget airline run by BA would be just another budget airline, the same as the others. Can't you work that one out Alan?

And BA are skint, so they aren't likely to be buying anyone out.

I would take that with a pinch of salt, as Alan says many things that aren't exactly believable. Like the fact that he is senior management in a logistics company. Yet he has no management sense whatsoever, and he spends much of his time on forums.

Also who is talking private jets? You are really in another world if you can't see how an extra £50-£100 would stop a lot of people flying.
Hit the nain on the head there
