The Airline Business and Flightglobal team has assembled some remarkable video interviews from this week's International Air Transport Association Annual General Meeting.
You can listen to immediate reaction from the world's largest gathering of airline bosses, with ex-airline CEO himself Peter Davies getting some fantastic interviews with among others:
* Willie Walsh, BA
* Fernando Conte, Iberia,
* Naresh Goyal, Jet Airways
* Mark Dunkerley, Hawaiian Airlines.
There are a dozen or so interviews here. Note that Mark Dunkerley of Hawaiian is the only US carrier CEO willing to be interviewed. We asked Glenn Tilton of United, Doug Steenland of Northwest and Gerard Arpey of American, but neither was happy to go on camera at the moment - pretty understandable I guess.
For more of the inside line on what happened at IATA read the Airline Business Dailies which we published during the event, with the first one (done in advance) featuring a straw poll of the world's leading analysts on their prognosis for the industry.
As both the videos and dailies show, it's grim.
