Much like Delta Airlines and Corona beer before it, Omicron Airlines is seeing massive losses due to the unfortunate coincidence of its name.
Omicron’s business has fallen off a cliff in the past month, with a 69% drop in ticket sales. Meanwhile, competitor Delta seems to be rebounding during Omicron’s collapse. Public relations with Omicron have said they hope to see business rebound this summer, and ask passengers to try to ignore the name of the nasty disease going around.
There have been no effects to business yet from the recently discovered Jet Blue variant.
