The reason is a lack of capacity at Schiphol. Luckily the AMS airport website clearly talks about lack of staff. Lack of capacity means... nothing. Runway 09-27 is closed for urgent maintenance till 26th April. Runway 18L-36R is closed for heavy maintenance till Mid July. https://www.aviation24.be/...

They didn't put the trafic for each route on each airport served by airlines. Ethiopian Airlines doesn't serve Nigeria only with the B777W. To Abuja they use B787 and for others smaller Nigerian cities, they use B737-800. Air France served 2 destinations in Ngeria moslty with the A330-200, but the ...

Covid-19 has hurt all airlines, so nobody will be eager to take risks with new business partners. After all, just like most passenger airlines, AB can’t present a good balance sheet and there is still that pending court claim from the initial B-shareholders (Avia Invest, Sumchenko, Yip and others) w...

Yeah, and which airline would be willing to have an interline agreement with AB? They would pay high price anyway. Basic need, yeah right. An interline agreement isn't a high risk for airlines, as there is limited time between effective date of travel and due date of payment. But for airlines with ...
