I agree with the above, but SkyTeam is good enough, in fact, there's not much of a difference between the two in terms of what TAROM's advantages would be, it's just a difference of size.
I'm more than happy with SkyTeam. ![]() Quote:
I know you meant destinations. Btw...Star Alliance: 975 destinations in 162 countries; 3,359 aircraft; 21 full members; 499.96 mil. pax/year SkyTeam: 841 destinations in 162 countries; 2,513 aircraft; 11 full members; 427.6 mil. pax/year Oneworld: 700 destinations in 150 countries; 2,350 aircraft; 10 full members; 333 mil. pax/year

![]() ![]() TAROM will only compete with Qantas if they launch a flight to Sidney and Qantas launched one to Bucharest. That would tehnically be competition. But the way you say it I understand you think TAROM will be somewhat on par with Qantas. I'd be happy if TAROM will be on par with LOT or Austrian 15 years from now.

Well i am sure it will happen when Romania as an EU Country gets access to the Electronic Ticket Authority (ETA) Visa Free Access to Australia in October. The EU will definately get Visa Free Access to Australia by October then things will take off for sure
Qantas in a matter of fact is considering to expand to Romania in about 5-7 years time. Last edited by Cosmin; August 27th, 2008 at 09:12 AM. |

I've just seen in the news that XL.com(West Ham sponsor), third largest travel operator in UK just went into administration,leaving 65000 pax stranded on different airports throughout the world.
I think there are more than 10 airlines not surviving the high costs of fuel this year alone. Below are some which I remember (but I'm sure there are some others) 9 April - Oasis Airlines - 5 (fleet size) 9 May - Euromanx - 3 13 May - Far Eastern Air Transport - 16 (after 51 years!) 30 May - Silverjet - 3 28 Aug - Zoom Airlines - 5 29 Aug - Alitalia - 181(still operating though) 7 Sept - Futura Airways - 27 12 sept - XL Airways - 15 Blueair should probably inquire.. see if they can get some more planes at a bargain price. Some of these planes were almost new at the time of bankruptcy. Last edited by High Mileager; September 12th, 2008 at 08:18 PM. |

I'm looking forward to see the changes at the Henri Coanda airport and all the other construction sites around town and in other cities.
I'll be arriving in Bucharest on the 15th of September, for a three week stay. One can only hope the weather will cooperate ![]() Regards |

Did he actually fly for an airline or just got his ATP license? They say "commercial pilot" in the article though, so I guess he holds a CPL and the shot in that 737 cockpit might just be for publicity. Anyway, great choice!
