Alaska Airlines til himmels!

[LN-MOW]

Outsorcing og kostnadskutt virker for Alaska ....

Through a combination of outsourcing, layoffs and strategic fuel purchases, Alaska has reduced its costs by up to 25 percent in recent years. At the same time, the airline has steadily expanded its customer base; it carried 23.2 million passengers last year — up 4.6 percent from 2004 — even though many of its cost-cutting moves upset some longtime customers.

Alaska is expected to report a profit of $46 million for 2005, or $1.66 per share, according to analysts surveyed by Zack's Investment Research. That would be a substantial turnaround from a loss of $15.3 million in 2004.

Hyggelig at det går bedre for eskimoen... Kunne vel ha valgt Alaska fra Seattle til Chicago i begynnelsen av april - men når alternativet er en kombinasjon av Frontier og Ted og enda større avstand (2 nye selskap på en dag) til CK så må nok et gjensyn med Alaska vente...
