Although 1.5m will wear out what's left of the fleet pretty quickly! <br /><br />Agree with the above comments re fleet renewal being important - perhaps taking up second-hand 717s might be another cost-effective solution (they're Boeing aircraft, not too old, about the right size, and many operators are replacing them). However, it doesn't solve the issue of aircraft for the future.<br /><br /><br />@ Philswe<br /><br />You're kidding right? Connections between where: FRA or MUC? Don't rule out oneworld for JU if the problems at Malev are as bad as what people say...<br /><br /><br />@ Q400<br /><br />Interesting point. They'd need to keep on with the numbers if all planes are in the air (but how do you explain the pathetic Media Centre?).

Could it be that the Unions are the real CEO's of Jat and as a result no new CEO, no matter how inspired he/she is could ever get Jat back into a positive position?Q400https://www.blogger.com/profile/09330385169689869567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-83727903626993438562009-09-19T01:06:29.285+02:002009-09-19T01:06:29.285+02:00IMHO Jat is not in a good position to join any all...IMHO Jat is not in a good position to join any alliance whatsoever, although if I'd have to choose between Skyteam and Star Alliance I would MOST DEFINETLY choose Skyteam. <br /><br />Bash Air France and Alitalia if you want, but look what LH will force Jat to do if it joins star: OU doesn't have a single destination east of Skopje.<br /><br />As for avoiding fleet renewal, Radanovic is only postponing a seemingly small problem that will come back to bite him or the company in the near future. Yes, the 733s are good and capable planes, but making an investement in atleast the smallest of fleet renewals could be less expensive than trying to keep all of those 733s in good shape for the next 5-10 years. <br /><br />Can't wait until openskies kicks in....I just want those hordes of newcomer airlines to teach these naive CEOs and politicians not to crap on the image of Jat with their stupid business plans.Aleki Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09327875969601953756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-91417420775292892022009-09-18T15:13:10.543+02:002009-09-18T15:13:10.543+02:00I also do not support entering the Star Alliance. ...I also do not support entering the Star Alliance. Unfortunately, flying the AirFrance was one of the worst flying experiences (Paris-Toulouse).<br />So, I was wondering if JAT could be successful without entering any alliance? Or at least entering after the establishment of some inter-cont lines?Miloš Đerićhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09839536344390264191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-41717890871274174422009-09-18T12:52:07.540+02:002009-09-18T12:52:07.540+02:00I hope this means a new begining for JAT and that ...I hope this means a new begining for JAT and that some better days are ahead. Would be nice to see JAT expand across the Balkans but im affraid that the ATR72's are a bit too big for some destinations (ie: Banja Luka, Ohrid, Sarajevo)<br /><br />@ anonymous<br /><br />i disagree that JAT should enter the star alliance network. It would end up as another feeder carrier to Lufthansa. That and 2 airlines from the SkyTeam alliance have shown support for JAT to enter the alliance (1 being Air France). How does airlines from the Balkans joing a single alliance affect conectability between flights?JATBEGMELnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-25383811415437310042009-09-18T11:18:28.054+02:002009-09-18T11:18:28.054+02:00I really hope that Serbian Airlines (JAT AIRWAYS) ...I really hope that Serbian Airlines (JAT AIRWAYS) is enjoying the Star Alliance network because Adria Airways and Croatia airlines using also Star alliance, and if the whole balkan region use the same network it would be much more better connections between flights! / PhilsweAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
