It's his last sentence that removes all credibility from that -

"but that is also something I hope to undertake within the next five years."
I hope to be hung like Ron Jeremy, but so far it hasn't happened.

I'm not saying we won't do it, but Kelly is deliberately non-committal.

It also doesn’t make sense to say something like: we will serve the following S American destinations by Jan 1st 2020.

Say things for a purpose: let investors know there’s a plan. Don’t actually spell out the plan for competitors before it’s necessary.

Agreed. But his track record for stating facts is far from stellar, and certainly nothing I would hang my hat on.

Twenty-five years? That is an airline eternity.
