NEW FLASH
Greece’s Aegean Airlines plans to suspend flights between Athens and Ljubljana for the entirety of the upcoming winter season. Last December, the carrier announced plans to upgrade the seasonal service to year-round, while last week it modified its flights for the winter with a pause in operations between November 15 and December 23. However, the carrier has now decided to completely remove the two weekly service during the 2024/25 winter season, which begins on October 27, 2024 and runs until March 30, 2025. Ticket sales have been discontinued for this period.
Ah yes it can never be too much good news for LJU in a row.
ReplyDeleteI would comment Bravo Fraport out of spite, but this is a Pratt & Whitney engine issue. Aegean is having cuts across the network
DeleteA3 has big fleet issues with the NEOs.
ReplyDeleteBravo Fraport!
ReplyDeleteMutti = happy = fraport
DeleteWhat does Lufthansa have to do with Fraport Ljubljana please?
DeleteWho are the shareholders of Fraport?
DeleteThe company's largest shareholder is Land Hessen, with ownership of 31%. With 21% and 8.4% of the shares outstanding respectively, Stadtwerke Frankfurt am Main Holding GmbH and Deutsche Lufthansa AG are the second and third largest shareholders.
My booking went from A320 NEO to A320 to canceled, my guess is that it's neo issue
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's a neo issue. Aegean does this every year. They schedule a bunch of seasonal routes year round and then cancel them. They did it to Zagreb for like 3 years before the flights actually became year round.
DeleteAnd they already cut ZAG compared to what they initially planned
DeleteBut ZAG is still on year round for the first time with Aegean, even flights in February two times per week.
DeleteNot much demand between Ljubljana and Athens. Aegean did not do enough reseach.
ReplyDeleteAegean faces big problems with their neos. Their flights between LJU and ATH are doing pretty good.
Deleteif it would be so bad as 12:04 said they would not even considered flights to LJU
Deleteplus sending their A320 instead of their ATRs
DeleteIf ATR operated the route then the flight would have lasted 3 hours. But anyway there is demand for the route thats why they send A320s. There is demand and potentional in ex-yu countries but airlines ignores that. It is very odd when somebody comments that there wasnt demand when a route is reduced or discontinued. Sometimes that is the case yes but there are many other aspects that influence the decision of an airline weather they will terminate a route or not. Same argument two days ago on the article about SKP-BCN flights and so on.
