Not biased at all. A transportation CEO wanting people to use transportation to get to work. I can't smell any bias.
Pretty sure his employees didn't fly to work before the pandemic either.
Video conferences have directly impacted airline profits.
Of course, but most of airline office workers don't commute by plane.
Don't think the comment was referring to them. And also doubt that most this guy employees never had the possibility to work from home, so the CEO is talking about other people, eg his possible clients
With my job I used to have to fly out and meet business teams every few weeks at their office. Now our business partners have staff working remotely so I no longer have to fly out to their offices as their staff aren’t there. That means we do everything via Zoom and meet more often and engage more directly than previously. It also means that I and my team no longer fly on an airline every few weeks. Everyone wins in this new paradigm except those that focus on business air travel.
No but other people did.
