Looks like Competition biting.

Operative losses is going up alarming, from 46m to 60m compare to last quarter

Once we get a brexit resolution and a stronger £ booking will be much stronger, many are putting off booking until a brexit resolution.

Certainly I will add more if there is any dip.

Not bad trading update, most U.K. business are suffering, as long as you are still trading in this environment, you will be rewarded over the medium term when consumer confidence picks up after project fear has subsided.

Stay focused and ignore the noise generally

Off to buy more (STX) & (INFA)

Group Tour Operator bookings are down 2%, with pricing 3% lower.


As a result, tour operator bookings are down 12%, helping to support pricing, which is up in all key segments, and 4% higher overall.

Group Airline bookings are below last year, as we have selectively reduced capacity in short and medium-haul destinations by taking in less wet-lease capacity.

Hemorrhaging cash


-- First quarter revenue up 1% to GBP1,656 million(2)
-- Q1 underlying operating loss increased by GBP14 million to GBP60 million against a strong prior-year period - loss from operations on a reported basis increased GBP7 million reflecting lower separately disclosed items

So back up the truck and buy more on the dip?

Not bad RNS. I think a lot here were expecting a bad RNS with a profit warning, so very good news. Reckon TCG is likely to be sold , its a big positive having a stregic review.

I would close all the shops and make a partner with Asda / Morrison’s and move in with them

[woozle1] 07/2/2019 07:28

r950, that business is now for sale; at a time of overcapacity and high oil costs. Also, the op profs are inflated by being part of a larger group. What is it worth a stand-alone business.

I'm taking the positives... We carried over 20 million passengers and generated GBP3.5 billion in revenue, with underlying operating profits growing 37% year-on-year to GBP129 million.

Not sure selling the family silver - the airline that made £129m of op prof - is a good move. They are still getting slaughtered in the package holiday business and now the highly profitable Nordic market is under pressure.

Selling the airline does not solve the UK cost base that is bloated with a near redundant booking channel - high street shop.

As expected neutral ... The norm really .. The 2nd and 3rd quarter are the real indicators as I said before .. counsels go down a little. Then buy buy buy

[bagpuss62] 07/2/2019 06:09

[backdoorbill] 06/2/2019 18:56

rns will speak for it self, then read between the lines

[bagpuss62] 06/2/2019 18:36

More please ...

[bagpuss62] 06/2/2019 18:35

I think it will rally momentarily then drop ..a little.. But long term 70 - 90p this year without a doubt

[backdoorbill] 06/2/2019 18:22

Market update will hit home with a sledge hammer.
