And now, Jet Airways.

[randomness]

I was never a huge fan of the airline but as is usual with airlines I'm on the side of more competition.

From https://www.bbc.com/news/business-47905089:

Passengers are stranded in India and around the world after Jet Airways suspended all international flights.

Flights from London, Paris and Amsterdam are among those grounded amid fears about the survival of India's largest private airline.

The airline cancelled all international flights until Monday when, according to reports, it will meet its lenders again to try to secure funding.

I remember once reading an odd article in Technology Review, which was at the time "the MIT journal of technology and policy". The author argued that airline deregulation (in the US) had been a failure because over the first five or so years, the airlines had lost an enormous amount of money. He didn't bother to explain why airlines losing money was a bad thing, though.
