"I didn't recognize anyone wrong." Even though Zhao Shanshan had already said hello to Xu Qing and could be regarded as acquiescing in his identity, Xu Qing still couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world

I met two acquaintances on a flight!

Zhao Shanshan actually knew from the beginning that Xu Qing was going to add a unit. Their flight crew has to confirm the information of the crew every time they fly, but Xu Qing no longer belongs to Blue Sky Airlines, and on the flight information on the Internet, only Xu Qing's name can be seen, but his photo and other details cannot be seen.

Before that, Zhao Shanshan had doubted whether it was the same name and surname, until she saw Xu Qing's real person.

After Xu Qing got on the plane, he first went to the cockpit to say hello, and after coming out, he went to the cabin to ask for a blanket and fell asleep. Zhao Shanshan was in charge of the rear cabin on this flight, so Xu Qing didn't see it when he boarded the plane. However, Zhao Shanshan saw Xu Qing who was sleeping when she was patrolling the cabin, even though Xu Qing's appearance and temperament have changed a lot, but Zhao Shanshan has seen a real person, and she still has some spectrum in her heart. After seeing Xu Qing's appearance, Zhao Shanshan could basically determine that the person in front of her was the famous Xu Qing.

Although the identity is confirmed, it does not mean that Zhao Shanshan has the courage to come forward and recognize each other. Not to mention that she and Xu Qing are just one-sided, and the things involved are really not beautiful memories, Zhao Shanshan is not thick-skinned enough to have a relationship with Xu Qingpan like this.

Besides, since her purser rank was taken, life has been very difficult. No matter what the reason, Tang Chen's incident of calling the police to arrest his captain has a very bad reputation in the circle, and all the people related to it are not happy. Until now, the cabin department has still treated her harshly, let alone reinstating the purser rank, even if she maintains her current rank, it is difficult to move forward.

On the other hand, Tang Chen is even more miserable, although he has resumed flying, he has been flying at the level of the second officer, not only flying badly, but also his salary is nearly half less than before.

With such a huge effort, the only thing worth celebrating is that the foreign captain was terminated from his contract and blacklisted by the Civil Aviation Administration, unable to continue flying in China, so he could only go back to his hometown in disgrace.

Although there was some gain, the price was so tragic that Tang Chen even wondered if he should have endured it at the beginning. Tang Chen thought about it later, if he swallowed his anger like this, then he would not be Tang Chen. It can only be said that he is not very lucky, and when he encounters such a strange thing, he should be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

Now that she is like a ghost in the cabin department, Zhao Shanshan has no shame to take the initiative to talk to Xu Qing, just to finish the flight silently, and then there is no intersection.

Unexpectedly, a bumpy accident finally allowed the two to meet, which was amazing.

Xu Qing and Zhao Shanshan are not acquaintances, and their friendship is estimated to be as shallow as a puddle, but after a year, they can still see the people they once knew on the plane, which gives Xu Qing a wonderful feeling of fate.

Xu Qing felt novel, but Zhao Shanshan was not. When you mix well, you can't wait for the world to know, and when you mix badly, it's a different situation, and you just want to find a crack in the ground to get into, and it's best for others to ignore it.

Well, now not only have I seen my old acquaintances, but I am still the one who mixes best, and the comparison is really the difference between heaven and earth, which makes Zhao Shanshan uncomfortable.

"Why haven't you recovered yet?" Xu Qing had a tendon in his brain, of course, he couldn't say that Xu Qing had a tendon, he didn't have the idea of laughing at Zhao Shanshan at all, but he was really curious why Zhao Shanshan hadn't recovered to the purser rank now. Wherever you think, you can say it.

Xu Qing felt that he and Zhao Shanshan were half acquaintances, so he didn't have to worry so much about talking, but in fact, Zhao Shanshan just cared about it. Xu Qing's current questioning undoubtedly revealed Zhao Shanshan's scars, making Zhao Shanshan ashamed and angry.

Zhao Shanshan blushed and explained with some stumbling: "Now the company should not lack a purser, so it may be stuck tightly." ”

Xu Qing didn't know the way of promotion on the crew's side, and when he heard Zhao Shanshan say this, he didn't have the intention of delving into it, but just asked Tang Chen about the situation.

When he learned that Tang Chen hadn't even recovered his original level in the past year, Xu Qingduan was very surprised. Xu Qing thought about it and reassured Zhao Shanshan, he would move from it and let Tang Chen return to his original level earlier.

Zhao Shanshan was overjoyed when she heard this, Tang Chen would be thankful if he could restore his original level now, and he didn't dare to ask too much. Today's Xu Qing is not what it used to be, and he said that it is definitely not a matter of saying that he can move from it, and she can trust this.

For Xu Qing, Tang Chen's matter is just a gesture, just communicate with Yang Jiyue, anyway, he was very annoying to the foreign captain at the beginning. Although Tang Chen said that he was a little reckless, there was a reason for the incident, and the punishment of more than a year was enough, it was time to restore the original level.

"By the way, don't you have any meals in your company now? Isn't it time for dinner? Xu Qing said strangely: "Or is it past the meal now, or it hasn't arrived." ”

Xu Qing saw that it was time to eat now, but he didn't have the slightest intention of starting a meal. Of course, it is still in a bumpy state and it will definitely not be able to open the meal, but there is no sign of opening the meal at all.

Zhao Shanshan heard that Xu Qing was willing to help Tang Chen, and she was already in a good mood, so she replied casually: "Now that the meal has been canceled, there should be no more in the future." ”

"None? Going the low-cost airline route? Xu Qing frowned, suddenly surprised by the change in Blue Sky's business strategy, and even forgot the strong turbulence for a while.

Zhao Shanshan: "That's right, the company has clarified the route of low-cost airlines. ”

When Xu Qing was still in Blue Sky Air, Blue Sky Air was taking the path of low-cost airlines. Various reductions in aircraft offerings and tightening of the amount of free baggage. However, although everything is done on the road to low-cost airlines, Blue Sky has always been reluctant to admit that it is a low-cost airline, not only to publicize it externally, but also to internally claim that the company is only controlling costs, not low-cost airlines.

No matter how you look at it, there is a kind of meaning that you want to be something and what you want to stand.

"Cheap flights right now?" Xu Qing asked. Low-cost flights can basically be equivalent to flying airbuses, basically do not provide additional services, greatly reduce operating costs, so as to reduce the price of air tickets, and attract more passengers with low prices, which is quite a bit of a small profit but quick turnover.

"The price of flights between some major cities has been reduced a lot, and the price of flights within the province has not changed much." Zhao Shanshan explained. At that time, after Blue Sky Air decided on its strategy as a low-cost airline, it carried out internal publicity, which involved the adjustment of ticket prices.

Routes between major cities, or more precisely between hub airports, usually have good seat availability and high ticket prices, making them more lucrative routes.

However, the high-quality flight schedules between hub airports have been monopolized by several large airlines, and regional airlines such as Blue Sky Airlines have been late in the layout of hub airports. In addition, small and medium-sized airlines like Blue Sky simply don't have the deep pockets to get through the joints and get quality flight schedules. As a result, Blue Sky Airlines' flight schedules between hub airports are very bad, either 6 a.m. or 11 p.m., and its ticket prices are not much cheaper than those flights of the big airlines, which makes the flight availability not high. Not to mention making money, but also losing money.

However, Blue Sky has been reluctant to give up the route between hub airports, and if it does not fly this route for a long time, the bureau may take back the right to operate this route.

Even if you lose some money, you must keep this kind of trunk flight, otherwise, if you want to enter it in the future, you will not even have a flight with a bad time.

Just because you're willing to lose some money to maintain mainline flights doesn't mean that Blue Sky is willing to keep losing money. After thoroughly defining the strategic route of low-cost airlines, Blue Sky dismantled all first class cabins and reduced the price of airfares on nearly a third of mainline flights, so that the price advantage became apparent.

The low price is a huge advantage, and some people who are not in a hurry have chosen Blue Sky Air, which greatly improves the seat capacity.

However, the price of air tickets has dropped so much that such flights still can't make money, but at least they won't lose money anymore. Blue Sky is quite satisfied with this point.

Besides, Blue Sky Airlines does not rely on this kind of trunk flights to make money, they rely on intra-provincial flights and plateau flights to make money. Intra-provincial flights and high-altitude flights are not within the scope of ticket price reduction, at least the price adjustment is not large.

After Yang Jiyue came to Blue Sky Airlines, she still knew where the advantages of Blue Sky Airlines were and where the shortcomings were.

Blue Sky Air has one of the best plateau routes in China, and at the same time is backed by the southwest tourist area.

However, no matter how big the civil aviation market in the southwest is, there is a limit after all. Therefore, if Blue Sky Airlines wants to develop, it must go out. Knowing this, the top management of Blue Sky decided to change its development strategy. It's just that they choose to focus on internationalization, vigorously develop international routes, and broaden the international market. Over the years, it has been proven that the strategy of internationalization does not work.

After a comprehensive analysis, Yang Jiyue believes that the next strategy of Blue Airlines should be in the northwest.

The southwest is mountainous, and its ground transportation is not very developed, so the routes in the province are unusually developed. The northwest region has many deserts and Gobi, and the area is extremely wide, and the ground transportation is also difficult, so the route in the northwest region also has a very high seat rate.

At present, China Airlines is the airline operating in the northwest region, but there are also many plateau airports in the northwest region, and China Airlines has insufficient experience in the operation of plateau routes, so many plateau airports in the northwest are not within the scope of China Airlines' operation. This makes there are still many gaps in the northwest civil aviation market.

As one of the companies with the most experience in the operation of domestic plateau routes, Blue Sky Airlines has a natural advantage in entering the northwest. And these regional regional regional flights are the future of Blue Airways.

Xu Qing: "It seems that your company has thought it through." ”

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. In the same way, if an airline takes the path of a low-cost airline, it will be difficult to turn back later.

Low-cost airlines have been going on for a long time, and it is easy to create a stereotyped image. If you want to return to the high-end route in the future, it is basically impossible. It is also not conducive to the implementation of new value-added services in the future.

It is precisely for this reason that the senior management of the original Blue Sky Airlines is always holding the pipa and half-covering their faces, doing low-cost airline things, but they are always unwilling to admit it internally and externally, which also leads to the fact that the cheap route of Blue Sky Airlines is not very thorough, but there is a feeling that the tiger is not an anti-dog.

Yang Jiyue's positioning of Blue Sky Airlines is much clearer, and she has unswervingly embarked on the route of low-cost airlines.

"Moreover, I have heard that the routes of some of our company's hub airports will be operated by Star Airlines, and the routes of Star Airlines involving special airports in the southwest and plateau airports will be operated by our company." Zhao Shanshan knows a lot, and even knows about the operation of the exchange routes between Blue Sky Airlines and Star Airlines.

Xu Qing raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Exchange routes, can it still be like this?" ”

It is very normal for airlines to exchange routes or even say that they sell routes, but it is relatively rare to involve so many routes.

Although Starfly and Blue Sky have a deep cooperation, it is extremely rare for such a large-scale exchange of routes. Last night, Li Xianyi said that the weekend gathering to discuss the merger of Blue Air and Star Airlines did not seem to be just talking. Rather, it has gone beyond the steps of merger intentions and has taken a substantial step.

Are Star Airlines and Blue Sky Airlines going to operate exclusively?

In fact, this kind of thing is also easy to understand. Although Star Airlines has flights involving special airports and plateau airports in southwest China, the number is very small, and special qualifications are required to operate special airports and plateau airports. For a very small number of special airports and plateau airport flights, it is necessary to retain a complete set of training system, and the cost of training alone is extremely high. Retaining a complete training system for the sake of just a few routes is a bit more than worth the loss.

At the same time, Star Airlines has much more experience in the operation of trunk flights than Blue Sky Airlines. Blue Sky Airlines' half-dead mainline flights delivered to Star Airlines cannot be transformed into magic.

Just when Xu Qing and Zhao Shanshan were talking happily, the bumps stabilized a little. Zhao Shanshan saw that it was safer, so she was ready to get up and go to the front cabin to sit in the flight attendant's seat.

A flight attendant always feels bad sitting in the passenger seat.

Zhao Shanshan said to Xu Qing, and as soon as she got up, she saw the purser answer the phone, and then loosen the seat belt, and actually walked over to them.

Xu Qing tightened his seat belt and was about to squint for a while, but at this moment, his arm was patted, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the purser who had arrived.

The purser whispered, "Brother, the captain wants you to go in now." ”
