Tell the full truth, that this is WTO requirement and they've screwed over developing countries requesting such.

Look it up people. They consider subsidies unfair competition.

If BA is 5 or 6 something in the hole, saving 150M in 5 yrs is writing off more than you're losing annually and you just borrowed a whopping $722 for just the year so no savings there. That's 15 yrs before "saving" on BA's debt. Things should correct much before 15 yrs.

Be sure the people still have an investment opportunity.

I go through this every month with my hosting bill for a site not started. Problem is it costs just the same short term to migrate it to a lower plan than the annual cost now. To make up the previous loss , it can wait to sell when it's high, no one's going to lend for you to buy if it's turns out we can't fly. Try before you die.

If one puff of wind sent a new plane flying whilst in the ground, they might be risky for far international travel.

If it's feasible to fly to other states, might as well fly between countries in the region who are dying for connection and not worry about passengers to here at all.

Are the alternatives ready to take over the market share or will this move allow the sharks to move in? Soft exit if any.

Just know what you going to do when JetBlue and the rest start making demands which undercut Flamingo and Junkanoo since the gov't is out.

Are people expecting that they'll still be able to invest on BSIX if it's private?

Btw, Maybe BOB should think out Island. (Bimini and Scotia is a good example of private leaving ya stranded)

Replica monuments if BA is shut down.

If Bahamasair was private , it would be shut down with any drag.

WTO doesn't allow susidized airlines which is why there's this rhetoric, unfortunately matched by bad management in the past.

United Emirates has state owned airlines. Guess we're paired rebels again.

If you remove duty on business stock, you'd have the whole Caribbean coming on Bahamasair to shop like we do Miami.

Aigh, are we going to leave the growing popularity connecting out island flights to ..Pinapple Air?

Breeze has been a factor during both football and golf before so us not being the pros shouldn't be the ones doing too much investing.

You don't want to just say only events with the most people. Analyze how die hard their fanbase is, purchase trend, use sports cluster analytics and market research to judge fan equity. https://scholarblogs.emory.edu/esma/fil…

These trips are also promos to build fan base for the teams. They expect the locale to make them popular. So look into offering such brand activation service for building loyalty. Take a look at Victoria Secret's pool parties, exclusive custom to the trip items.

And sometimes brand new sporting event tournaments have something special. Get your heart in the game.

Let the cruiseliners simply add the sporting events which they have time for to their sites as excursions weeks in advance. That ought to get more venturers off the boats.

As for sports, festivals, and other new tourism industries. You didn't get a stadium for nothing.
Expect that the first events wil need infrastructure investment , that then allows future prospects, unless you want the firstcomer risk takers to have financial stake in furture events for their own investing, like FYRE getting a cut of any festival held where they set up water supply in Exuma..

Shouldn't have to use tax dollars like Brazil on the World Cup and Olympics if you introduce those proposals to some Sporting event giant brand investor. Who did the golf courses? Not us, Tiger Woods or PGA did.

Popeyes bowl was entirely empty because the ticket to travel is expensive and it wasn't promoted locally. That's where local marketing comes in. Always fill last minute extra seats free. Have hotel, car rental , tailgating parties, and excursions packaged for those game day visitors. Have to tailor and customize in such marketing, not expect the organizers to just say hey we're going to the Bahamas and have people look things up. I'm sure there's local marketing firms better at this. Although Sports events are usually empty.

And can we not call guests "bodies"? Thanks. Don't forget there has to be something worth spending on.

Oh yeh, don't forget and screw up the commonwealth games!!!!!!! i'm hearing nothing on it. We all know FNM don't know how to put on a show. This will be the largest thing we've had yet. Must come back from Fyre.

There's also that silly laptop screening which may take affect and some may not risk locations which aren't up to par.
