Jet Airways
Being in the Procurement division of a large company with operations in several countries has to be among the most interesting jobs in the world, atleast for me ... Need to research multiple economies, global travel, negotiating etc ....
These guys travel everywhere ! At a recent dinner, a few Procurement folks from one of our clients started talking about some of their travel experiences in different parts of the world. These guys are all Americans and they have been to most of the Asian countries.
They started making jokes about China's airlines, especially China Eastern and about the quality of the Iranian airline and the Jordanian airline and so on. When they got to the topic of Indian air travel, they unanimously agreed that Jet Airways was one of the best airlines in the world and that the food on Indian flights was superb ! I was very happy to hear that and I went home and bought some Jet Airways stock - If it could make these guys who have travelled on every airline in the world (literally) happy, its got a good thing going.
And after all the founder of one of the most successful investment firms in the world (I forget his name, and no, its not Warren Buffett !), his advice is simply - "Buy the stock of companies whose service you like - If you go to a store and like its service, buy their stock" ...
More power to Jet Airways !
