Passenger numbers are rising this summer. It is great to see many flights are back in the sky! But in the Middle East, the market dynamic has been very different among the ME3 carriers which is Emirates, Qatar Airways, and Etihad.

The competition has always been fierce in the Middle East, the Persian Gulf carriers rely on connecting traffic heavily, their model is built by carrying passengers between the east and west. There are a few things really against the ME3 carriers.

In the video, the aviation analyst explains the problem these carriers face. The video gives the latest update and analysis from Emirates, Qatar Airways and Etihad. Etihad will be introducing A350-1000 into their fleet shortly.

At the end of the video, I think one airline will do very well out of the current environment. This is Turkish Airlines. Check out the reasons behind my call on Turkish Airlines.
