Pristina and ZAG are connected daily, and that enables BA to go around the problem: change their airport partner w/o dissing the market. Pristina in that sense may be a partial feeder to ZAG for flights to London.Petarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08097841895448140789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-40105803411338962512012-05-30T05:24:45.500+02:002012-05-30T05:24:45.500+02:00And that suppose to be ZAG?And that suppose to be ZAG?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-89012679575522509082012-05-29T23:32:10.331+02:002012-05-29T23:32:10.331+02:00British neo-colonialist methods...British neo-colonialist methods...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-81190363395028368722012-05-29T21:41:43.517+02:002012-05-29T21:41:43.517+02:00This is nothing more than a pure rumor.

The supposed BA employee in Kosovo is a member of the local staff who have absolutely no insight nor say in BA politics.<br /> <br />Having said that, I think BA's way of trying to "push" certain desires of theirs to PRN Airport is simply arrogant at best. <br />Take the fuel supplier for instance, BA refused to get fueled up in PRN because PRN changed it's fuel supplier from BP to a local Company. Apparently the issue was the questionable quality of the fuel (although all tests and all other airlines didn't find anything wrong with it) but we all know that the main reason is because both BA and BP come from the same Country. <br />Need I remind BA that it is up to the Airport to choose the fuel supplier and not to the airline. <br />To make a long story short, if BA has a problem with the fuel in PRN let them get fueled up somewhere else (like they do in Dubrovnik Airport), other than that all BA flights to/from PRN are sustainable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-58743272656906609262012-05-29T19:49:34.619+02:002012-05-29T19:49:34.619+02:00this explains the rationale behind BA announcement...this explains the rationale behind BA announcement on coming to ZAG.

So, I am not sure how accurate this (Zëri) report is. It remains to be seen if there is any truth to these reports (although all the rest of the media simply republished the Zëri story).<br /><br />Having said this, it's incredible how many people/groups Limak have managed to upset in less than a year since they've taken over the airport. It might be a little pain now for a lot of gain later. I always prefer to take the long term view rather than short term ups and downs. Yet, Limak might be building the perfect storm for themselves. Completely unnecessarily they have also picked up a fight with the national authorities regarding the official name of the airport.
