BRUSSELS - Airline chiefs from the top five operators in Europe on Wednesday were asked a simple question: If they could trade places with one of their rivals for a week, who would they choose?
The panel of the bosses of IAG, easyJet, Lufthansa, Ryanair and KLM were asked the question while they were sitting alongside each other at an Airlines for Europe summit. “I would take Ryanair, and I would show customers that they can really have an enjoyable journey if they paid ,” KLM’s Pieter Elbers said in answer to the question.
IAG boss Willie Walsh also chose KLM, and stirred the pot by introducing an M&A aspect to the session.
