I did not dwell on causes of delay of OneJetOne which is a noble idea and fantastic product. I needed answers on how Ruzaik and his team will overcome the above aspects and more.<br />It is naive to think that KQ will do nothing. Watch this space! They will dump prices, increase frequencies, sponsor bad press, contest route designations etc etc<br /><br />Mr Ruzaik please address the issues i raised. And i will be happy to be on the first OneJetOne flight and subsequently a frequent flier.<br /><br />Anonymous 1!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596185367102352450.post-7300089374915745562010-10-20T01:48:51.312-07:002010-10-20T01:48:51.312-07:00@Anonymous2,I also agree that the joke is on the f...@Anonymous2,I also agree that the joke is on the first Anonymous.He started off as someone who knows a lot about airline startups but the 6 questions(that have nothing to do with the OneJetOne delay at all!) betrayed him.<br /><br />BilhaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596185367102352450.post-14716380085404497492010-10-19T22:54:07.946-07:002010-10-19T22:54:07.946-07:00@ Anonymous - I have just read your comments above...@ Anonymous - I have just read your comments above and feel naivety is on your part to bring up issues/questions which has nothing to with the delay. As Mr. Ruzaik has clearly said the delay has been due to many factors such as requirement of a huge investment, getting such investors in a developing country etc. <br /><br />I believe OneJetOne, despite all the challenges wil be seen in the Kenyan skies, flying high and pink!<br /><br />Well done Mr. Ruzaik!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596185367102352450.post-59424765892631154942010-10-18T00:57:45.399-07:002010-10-18T00:57:45.399-07:00Very bold and interesting comments by Mr. Ruzaik t...Very bold and interesting comments by Mr. Ruzaik that are laced with naivety. What his aviation experience like? I have keenly followed the development of OneJetOne because of a personal interest in aviation but also as a consumer that will benefit with its entry. However, am getting disillussioned by the inordinate delays and shifting sands of reasons of delay. <br /><br />Am also of the opinion that OneJetOne are too idealistic and ill-prepared for the actions and reactions of the incumbents to its entry. We could end up with a Simon Makonde story of a very good but short-lived deal!<br /><br />Can he come back on and explain to us how he plans to deal with the actions/reactions of the incumbent airlines especially KQ? In other markets the following happened:<br /><br />1] A statistically significant drop in prices as soon as the incumbent learns of the threat of entry.We find that two-thirds of the total fare drop among the incumbents came from the threat of competition rather than actual head-to-head competition<br /><br />2] Predatory pricing. <br /><br />3] Enhanced Frequent Flier Programmes<br /><br />4] Increase in route frequency<br /><br />5] Media Campaigns- they have large war chest<br /><br />6] Other actions that make the market unfair.<br /><br />I am waiting!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
