NEWS FLASH
Sky Alps has prematurely concluded operations on two of its six seasonal routes from Mostar, discontinuing services to Naples and Munich nearly six weeks ahead of schedule. The decision is believed to be driven by low demand. The Italian regional carrier continues to operate flights from Mostar to Bari, Bergamo, Palermo and Rome Fiumicino, which are scheduled to run until mid-October. The airline maintains its Mostar network with a mix of Dash 8 turboprops and a wet-leased Embraer E195 aircraft from Marathon Airlines.
Damn is writing trip reports bad luck, first Wizz air Abu Dhabi and now this
ReplyDeleteSkyAlps is a joke, starts routes and then cancels them
ReplyDeleteThat is literally what 90% of all airlines do if a route is performing as bad as OMO-NAP
DeleteAeroitalia 2.0
DeleteWhy italian airlines are like them ? No serious airlines...
I hate it but it's not illegal nor exclusive only for Italian carriers. Air Serbia scrapped Zurich from Niš faster. If it doesn't work, the company will invest only if sees huge benefit in the longer run... And SkyAlps is not after longer run at all, I think.
DeleteThey have success in their home market of Bolzano, there was probs just not enough demand on these routes. Palermo seems to be performing acceptably
DeleteSkyAlps actually owns Bolzano airport (or their owner does)
DeleteAt least we'll see them around flying for Croatia next year ;)
ReplyDeleteWet leased from Marathon?? After the fiasco with Air Serbia? Says enough about the airline
ReplyDeleteWhy? Why does one rogue pilot mean the company should never be used?
DeleteWith that logic, no one should ever fly on MH or AA. Talking nonsense.
DeleteNot to mention Aeroflot where a pilot let his son fly a plane..
DeleteMarathon has had one non lethal accident caused by a very controversial pilot decision.
DeleteI have not seen anything from the inquiry or authorities that would point thre airline management as the cause of the accident .
So Marathon is a standard airline like many others.
