    If you feel so angry about Astraeus-tell the company.
    Or tell everyone else at – http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/astraeus.htm
    They, like all airlines big or small,are in business to make money, oh, and to get you and me from A to B asap as cheap as poss.
    They don’t want to be late either!
    There will probably be penalty clauses in contracts with tour operators if X% of the flights are late/tech etc.
    I’ve just come back from Zante with them – no problem either way.
    Maybe I was lucky. maybe you (and everyone else) were unlucky that time.
    I recall spending 7 pleasent hours in LBA departures when a little outfit called Mytravel (any relation?), decided to let the crew go down with food poisoning.
    Would you rather Astraeus didn’t fly from LBA? or at all?

    “Wizz Air rescues cancelled Centralwings passengers

    Wizz Air, the largest low fare – low cost airline in Central and Eastern Europe offers free tickets to Centralwings passengers whose flights were recently cancelled.

    Wizz Air offers free tickets (only taxes and charges are to be paid) on Katowice-Milan, Warsaw-Liverpool and the recently announced Katowice-Doncaster Sheffield routes to passengers who hold reservation on Centralwings’ Warsaw-Milan, Wroclaw-Milan and Warsaw-Leeds Bradford flights which are suddenly discontinued by Centralwings this month.

    Wizz Air has been continuously building its market presence in Poland since the country’s EU accession. This summer the airline is increasing its capacity by 50% compared to the same period last year, adding 15 new routes and offering a total of 33 routes from 5 Polish airports including Warsaw, Katowice, Gdansk, Poznan and Wroclaw to Polish passengers and to those who wish to visit Poland from all over Europe.

    Wizz Air is the largest low fare – low cost airline in Poland with 40% market share in the low cost airline sector in 2005. The airline has been voted – for the second consecutive year – the best low fare airline in Poland on pasazer.com, Poland’s largest travel portal.

    “The sudden route cancellations by Centralwings tell me that the strong airlines are getting stronger and the weak ones are getting marginal. Wizz Air has been demonstrating its commitment to Poland and to stranded Polish travelers on numerous occasions. People can always count on us.” – said József Váradi, Chief Executive Officer of Wizz Air.

    It certainly did – summer only, until about 6/7 years ago, via Birmingham (1 hour to refuel, drop off, pick up, and to practice your French – otherwise the cabin crew would ignore you), and then back to YYZ – on a Tues from memory. AT was/is always a joy to fly with.

    Hi everyone
    Regular viewer – First time post
    Guess who is due to fly with centralwings from LBA to WAW in July. Guessed right.
    Having read today’s posts, I rang centralwings and the rep confirmed that all flights after May “are on hold”, and a decision will be made on either 9/10 May.
    Hope this info helps.
