Airlines - So you think you are doing OK - 2006 Numbers

Accoding to ICAO the airlines FINALLY made a profit in 2006. $2.7Bn give or take the odd lost bag. Well how does that stack up against hotels? No so good... about 11% of hotels' profits give or take the odd missing bathrobe. For hotels; revenues increased by 8.7% from the $122.7 billion generated in 2005 and profits increased 17.9%, up from $22.6 billion last year.

For exact details see:

TSK... TSK... there needs to be a better ROI.

Cheers
