Unfortunately I can’t say I’m surprised by this situation, but it’s still pretty bad, and one can’t help but wonder how numbered the carrier’s days are…

Man I feel for the staff. "Please work more so we can keep the lights on" Doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
The least they could have done is given them a 10% bump on pay but what good is 10% on -100%. No Bueno situation.
Most airlines will be worse because of "fees" , high executive pay , poor service , and crowded , twisted seats .
One has to wonder if Mr T. Dunn, was the analyst who advised them when they were drafting their business model.
@AeroB13a, why are you so fascinated with Tim? This was a totally unrelated article. I actually like some of Tim's comments.
If you seek an all-business, all-lie-flat airline, that regularly flies between the US and Europe, and that actually pay its people and its bills, please consider... La Compagnie. EWR-ORY/MXP/NCE.
This is an online world that rewards chronic mouth-breathers filling up comment sections in every niche of the Internet, and one must feel the most rewarded
Me too Ben, when Timmy is anthropomorphising Delta by assuming it has beliefs, desires or feelings …. 🙂
Ricky, I'm not even sure that's the real Aero, because it's merely 'Guest' not 'Diamond' and there is a fella who likes to impersonate some of the regulars on here.
Rest assured, at least the top executives are still getting paid; the front-line workers, probably not. Sad.
This should be easy to solve: only people with valid logins can post. There are lots of sites that operate comments in this way.
Nah, weekendsurfer, that shouldn't be necessary; this is an outlier issue. Those other sites are either so large that they need it, or have very little commentary. I hope Ben keeps it simple. He should be able to see who's using which email, etc. and other things on the back-end to verify who's who, if really needed.
I am curious how these airlines (Air Belgium for instance) attract decent talent? From your reviews, the cabin crew and flight crew seem to be coming from reputable global carriers. Did they choose to leave to take a chance on a new airline or were they terminated and were looking for a new opportunity? Makes me wonder because I feel for the staff. If they do go under, I hope they can find employment elsewhere.
@weekendsurfer likes his/her opinion to be censored and controlled.
A freedom of thought community like here, welcomes Tim Dunn to an extent and us fellow readers call out on his fluff. You might be annoyed by Tim. But his presence allows us to see what a big fat lier he is and rest of us providing insights that really matters whether it's DL UA or other airline.
But we do give these fanatics an opportunity to prove them wrong.
The most pathetic ones are the fake imposters. Since everyone here is already using a form of an alias, there is absolutely no reason to pretend to be someone you're not. It's not like 1990 or AeroB13a really cares if someone is faking a made up username.
There are more identifying information on the backend that Ben can absolutely see. Only the pathetic morons think they can get away with a fake name.
How could any thinking person actually disagree with you Eskimo? I think that I had better give myself a ‘Trigger Warning’ to stop agreeing with you! …. 🙂
"The Anus" is at it yet AGAIN, much to nobody's surprise! This crazed, crying lowlife is well known for "spewing 24/7 crap", "a brain of extremely small size", "false claims of fornication" that are "Totally ficticious". Sod you, you fucking fake Brit! COCKNEY!!!!!!!!!!
How on earth is this relevant to an article about airline flying to Maldives? It has literally nothing to do with the US.
The login names users “Plane Jane”, “Jessica” and one or two others in the past, would appear to favoured by one and the same person. That person is clearly a compulsive, aggressive, psychologically disturbed individual. With a particularly foul mouth on them, so much so that nobody would ever consider addressing them as ladies.
I often use the words of Thomas Michael Bond, to describe such troubled individuals as being a “Bear of very little brain”.
Notwithstanding, I am certain that Ben, will appreciate their efforts to support his click count, while others enjoy mocking them for their intellectual inadequacies. Thank you TWD if it is you who is being driven to despair.
It’s a bit confusing to me.
Including the legality.
How is it an airline that’s based in Dubai (UAE) with no aircrafts under the UAE aircraft registry?
They may have an “office” in Dubai but there head quarters must be in the country where the aircrafts are registered which is the Maldives.
Can someone correct my understanding if I’m wrong?
According to Airhex.com the country of registration / operating certificate: Maldives.
However, the headquarters are in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, according to Wiki.
