rather frustrating re what's happening re Garuda & Adelaide but as with any business that is trying to stay viable it comes down to the almighty dollar.Supposedly not enough bums on seats means no flights for those of us in Adelaide but how can there be bums on seats if there are no flights !
The flight that Helen,Heather & the 2 of us left on came via Melbourne but only 75 people were on the flight from Melbourne & 100 people from Adelaide .The way I remember maths at school that means 25 people more people left from Adelaide.In any ones figures that is a big percentage difference for Adelaide vs Melbourne but we are the ones getting Garuda flights canned.
Not up to us to do the figures though.As I said any business including an airlines needs to remain financially viable in order to continue in business & hopefully they are the best ones to figure out how to do this.
