And the airline with no class at all has a a/c painted with a slogan saying “bye bye sky europe”.:mad: .Lets hope MAN but a flag out saying “thank god your going, you will not be missed”;)

Anyway sad to see another one go. Lets hope FR dont announce an ex-sky europe base in the next few weeks (which they probably will). EZY will be welcome by most people on the more western routes (AMS-VIE, VIE-LCA, ORY-PRG, ORY-VIE and MAD-VIE).

Well, too late, FR already announced a base at Bratislava a couple of weeks ago, so right on home turf for SkyEurope. That said, Wizz are the airline that have been going after them for some time across central Europe and Wizz’s decision to start a Prague base will have had a dramatic effect on cash-flow at SkyEurope just as a result of forward bookings bewing made with W6 instead. So consequently Wizzair have probably had more to do with SkyEurope’s demise if you’d like to blame anyone.

As for the slogan, come one and get over it. Ryanair do that about lots and lots of airlines, many of whom will not be going out of business anytime soon. And they’re not alone, other European LCC’s have been paiting similar slogans recently. Finally don’t forget the battleground that was Virgin’s fuselages with comments fired out in the direction of BA. These things are to be taken with jest.

As for MAN hanging out a flag, the only thing that needs hanging out there is the management, have they failed ot notice the only show in town these days are LCC’s! Despite rumours about EZY embarking on grand expansion at the Airport, I’m not sure they can be all that true given that LTN has been considered a touch pricey with a similar yield strength to MAN.
