  • Some argued that the airline industry is just unsustainable

    World - bing maps explorer @Earthgrub Replying to @jazzcatte it's honestly very funny that the airline industry is so absurdly unsustainable and has such razor thin margins that they have to treat every human involved like shit in order to ever turn a profit 07:09 · 2/12/22 · Twitter for Android
