An open letter by Akbar Al Baker, chief executive officer, Qatar Airways:I recently came across the remarks made by Schulte-Strathaus, secretary general of the Association of European Airlines, about how global competition needs to be addressed by the International Civil Aviation Organisation, similar to what the industry is calling for in the domain of the environment. He focused on the competitive pressure that airlines from the Gulf are posing on their counterparts elsewhere.
Usually I would choose not to comment directly on calls to find ways to limit the growth of the Gulf carriers, including Qatar Airways. However, because Mr Schulte-Strathaus chose to address one of the august forums of aviation visionaries in the world, I thought I needed to put the record straight.
