Stobart selling Aer Lingus seats – but quiet on staffing
Tweet Picks:
@CamWallace_NZ Tough choice withdrawing from BUE. A unique and volatile market. The RR engine problems didn’t help, making high operating trip costs worse. The LF was ok but it’s a extremely seasonal market with significant amounts of lower value connecting traffic.
@kylelarnold .@americanair CEO Doug Parker: “I don’t think people should look at bankruptcy as a financial tool, I think it’s failure.”
@simonasbartkus I heard a rumour @airBaltic asked permission from Lithuanian government to fly from Vilnius to London, Dublin, Oslo, Amsterdam and @TLLairport starting May 25th.
@simonasbartkus I have strong rumour the @Ryanair bases will be closed in Kaunas and Vilnius on June 30th and to be replaced by Polish company @BuzzAirOfficial operations. Not much change for average Joe, actually.
@simonasbartkus Lithuanian government allowed flights from Lithuania to Germany and the Netherlands from May 28. Foreign minister
@LinkeviciusL told @airBaltic applied to fly Berlin and Amsterdam from Vilnius; @wizzair applied to serve to Vilnius-Dortmund, Vilnius-Eindhoven and Kaunas-Eindhoven.
