AN AIRLINE EMPLOYEE INSIGHT

I have been fascinated by aircrafts since I was a young boy. How such a heavy machine "floats" in the air and carry people across seas.

When I became an Airline employee, I had the chance to see aircrafts everyday whenever I go to work, and it's pretty neat! I also have travelled many places in the Philippines, both on Vacation (for free!) and on Official Business.

Now the Airline Industry is suffering since the 911 attack, add the fluctuating Fuel Prices, many of Airlines have already closed. AH1N1 has also contibuted to the decreasing market for the Airlines. Then there are several recent Air accidents in the past few months, this may further reduce the comfort of the traveling public to travel by air.

Existing Airlines have to come up with new marketing plans and programs to revive and strengthen the Airline Industry. Most are continuously updating services and product to stay afloat and survive.

Anyway, as they say, statistically, AIR TRANSPORT is still the safest way to TRAVEL. Enjoy your trips!
