Re: New regional airline at Liège Airport?

I cannot imagine how an airport can set up an own airline, and at the same time deliver full service to airlines that it will compete with. Perhaps not direct competition (= route to same airports), bur for sure indirect competition (= route to nearby airports). Koh Samui airport is owned by Bangko...

Don't know why this has not been mentioned today (or has it?) The name VLM will return, and maybe new flights from Antwerp . Rumors say Zürich, Geneva, Birmingham and Munich.

739.49 Euro with Emirates in April. And yes, that is not cheap , but possible.

Re: Emirates quitting Conakry

@ Passenger,

I agree with you, but most of the Dutch were on a package holiday (Kras + Stip) and had more or less not much to say about airline / route. But yes, people agreed with that, if they could have a (relative) cheap holiday in return. Afriqiyah was dirt cheap in that time..

Re: Malaysia Airlines says it has lost contact with flight M

Malaysian officials now admit engine pings were detected and the 777 remained flying for 4-5 hours after transponder transmissions went dark.
