Bad decisions by a bad airline. In the space of 6 months DFW added three carriers to Iceland, Icelandair, WOW and of course cannibalistic American (stay out of my play house.) Did WOW really think they had a chance?

CNN's Richard Quest interviewed WOW CEO Mogensen a couple of times last year and the airline executive was adamant that his Business plan including a rapid expansion in routes and fleet increments were on sure footing. Sorry to say but I think that this world has too many airlines chasing yes, an increasing number of passengers, but the curve is against the investors.
