God, this thread is awesome, kids talking about stuff they have no idea about  :lol:

I can see Kalitta buying new aircraft rather than going out of buisness, there is always going to be a need for cargo, not so much pax.

AirFrance/KLM just announced they are going to stop talks with Alitalia, because of the not-so-flexible Italian unions. So unless Berlusconi really has some banks coming out of his sleeve in a few days, add that one to your list.

now, who next?

NORTHWEST :(

The only reason ATA stayed afloat was their affiliation with Southwest.


Didnt Northwest merge with Delta?

I read in yesterday's paper (Le Devoir, Montréal, Apr.7) that the unions wanted back on the negociation table.

As far as I know, they had a deadline set on today with their old offer still standing, and I haven't heard of any new progressions in talks with the unions, so chances are it's not gonna happen and Berlusconi has to come to the rescue.

No.  The merger fell apart when the pilot's unions couldn't come to an agreement for merging the seniority lists.

Well Ansett went bankrupt i think hmmmm three four years ago. Qantas planes are slowing detereorating, but will be refreshed. Hmm reminds me of Ansett. Jetstar, Virgin Blue (Budget Airlines) are still here and going well. Tiger airways here aswell but will soon cease. Qantas and Virgin have taken away staff from tiger....

Oh well.

Qantas is (i think) Slowly dying, to bad they're a good airline. (free food, comfort not to bad, entertainment, friendly staff, relatively quick service and the first airline to start and airline within an airline. How original. (Jetstar) I hate Jetstar! :evil:

Really? I just went to their website and it doesn't seem like it...

Their latest press release:

New appointments further strengthen Oasis Hong Kong Airlines sales force
Hong Kong, March 19, 2008

Oasis Hong Kong Airlines (Oasis) has appointed two industry veterans to further strengthen their sales team: Winnie Ma, Deputy General Sales Manager – Hong Kong & Southern China; and Esther Wang, Deputy General Manager – International Sales & Distribution.

I know thats March but how many airlines do you know of that actually post their "latest news" on the web...wait I may have contradicted myself there...
...
...
...
...
...no I didn't, if they were ceasing operations you'd think they'd tell us :lol: on the contrary, their reservation system appears to be undergoing "maintenance"...now I'm confused :(
