So it is hard job, very unpopular (strikes, worker deprecations, social problems, political problems), for sure politicians don’t like the idea that they will not be able to put their friends in Jat management any more, and Serbia must find 200 million EUR for that. Does Serbia have 200 million? Can political do that «dirty jobs» or «hot potato»? I don't know, for sure it depends what is political will about this! But for sure it is blackmail from Etihad. It will be like this or not. Yes, I agree with you that this is logical, it has to be done like this. So in that case blackmail is not negative thing. I just hope someone will blackmail Croatian Government the same way. I wrote that for several times. I again I point: «Serbian Government must do what ever Etihad asks, because that is last chance for Serbian air traffic, and it is opportunity once in a hundred years».<br /><br />About MEB3 (Qatar, Etihad, Emirates), their goal is to make their hubs one of the world biggest (or even the biggest). They are just tool for their governments’ goals like tourism, business, trade, selling real estates, political influence... Lot of their movements is highly risk because of financial background they have. Because of that they open routes which are questionable, very often they use dumping, and because of that they almost never cancel routes. In that way for sure they show who has the biggest di...k. Lot of times, all the times. To have 5 companies from that region with some 32 weekly flights in BEG is very illogic (that is more than double BUD has), they all must use dumping for get enough passengers. But will any of those cancel some frequencies or even stop flying to BEG. I thing not!<br /><br />And YES, YOU ARE RIGHT!

We are unable to lower the cost below the asking price of the fuel provider”, he says.<br />If BNX wants to lower the fuel price, they need customs warehouse (or depot) for fuel . There is a depot which is mutually owned (1/2) by BNX and Ministry of defence. BNX needs to have this property 1/1 or at least have an approval or concession on property from the Ministry of defence in order to get a licence from Indirect Taxation Authority of Bosnia and Herzegovina. BNX is the only airport in Bosnia and Herzegovina which is half military / half civilian.

In May Zagreb Airport handled only 205000 passengers, 22000 passengers down on projected number for May, and 10000 down on 2012 figure. <br /><br />Reason for slump in number was a Croatian Airlines strike at the airport which lasted 8 days but also general solidarity strike of airport staff which lasted few days, sufficient to explain dip in numbers. <br /><br /><br />June should be back on schedule when Zagreb airport is expected to handle record passenger numbers, ZA is expected to handle 258000 passengers in June.

This demonstrates how hopelessly airlines are run in the region where a potential market like Bosnia was so mismanaged by all Ex Yu carriers!<br /><br />What is happening with Serbia, Jat and Etihad behind the scenes is anyone's guess. My personal opinion is that some persons fear that they will soon lose one of their personal ATM's (Jat) and when this happens, the flood gates could be opened and they could lose the lot. I do not believe everyone in Serbia wants this to go through. Many powerful people in Serbia will lose out big time if or when Etihad take control of Jat.<br /><br />I also do not think that just because 4 or 5 middle east airlines operate to Belgrade at this time that this represents doom and gloom for Zagreb in terms of middle east services. Zagreb airports biggest issue up until now has been the lack of investment into infrastructure. In my opinion, delaying the new terminal this long has disadvantaged Zagreb airport massively!<br /><br />Once the new terminal is complete, along with the new operators I believe we will see very good growth and many more airlines to Zagreb.Q400https://www.blogger.com/profile/09330385169689869567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-48612327024757144702013-06-19T15:11:13.999+02:002013-06-19T15:11:13.999+02:00so what... this is blog about aviation, in most of...so what... this is blog about aviation, in most of the posts there is discussion about all other subjects especially if those are about some new information (and Qatar LF from ZAG is something new).
