Damn

They really need a propper overhaul .. I wish they wouldnt go bankrupt coz i like the airline but lets face it they may as well give up.

What I dont understand is the purchasing of all those new aircraft 777's e145s e170's on order. if they have no money.

Stupidity

If they're going out of buisness, who's taking the market away from them. What I'm trying to say is who's competing with Alitalia???

Windjet, Air One, Ryanair, etc but AZ are just poorly run .. simpel as that.

Look at Sabena, there was also not competitor to take over the routes. A small new airline can takeover a lot of routes.

It's indeed maybe better to "shut down" AZ and to start up with a new airline, which will get a better managment.

Agree with Avro I hope they can keep the name somehow.
