OT, sorry! couldn't find an email address to send this to, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-46624293,
18k seems a bit wishy-washy.
Just to be clear, during that period members were treated to a smorgasbord of Italian and Arabic techniques to seize accounts and leave mileage holders with nothing.
My account was left empty after failing to redeem by the end of 2017. It should be noted that at that time, AZ was the only airline in history raising redemption rates from 40K transatlantic C class to about 2 million miles for the same trip.
Hmmm, Bankrupt but yet can still afford to buy a brand new, 400,000,000 USD Boeing 777-300ER, How ? Ben, what do you make of this ?
Hmmm..., Bankrupt but can still afford to buy a brand new, 400 Million Dollar Boeing 777-300ER ?
How is this possible, did they just find the money ? Ben, what do you make of this ?
Ben, if Alitalia are bankrupt, and have been for 18 months, how do they suddenly find the money to buy a brand new Boeing 777-300ER ? Did they just find it, or am I missing something
I stand corrected, AZ has 1x 773, formerly with air Austral, leased from AerCap (Ireland. Same leading company of some of the 772s).1
The current Italian ultra right-wing government will pump funds into AZ’s accounts for many years to come. AZ’s fate is closely related to, if not even part of Italy’s chronic penis envy issues.
As Mach81 pointed out - Alitalia's 77W is not brand new - it's a former Air Austral aircraft.
