The Father of Low Cost Airlines


Sir Freddie Laker, perhaps the pioneer of low cost air travel so popular today, passed away in Miami yesterday, 9th February.

For the younger generation who think people like Michael O'Leary (Ryanair) and Stelios Haji-Iannou (easyJet, and my former boss) are the pioneers of low cost travel, you can read obituaries on Sir Freddie from the BBC, The Daily Telegraph and CNN here. Posted by Picasa
