Sur Aviation - anyone??

A superstar member of the team at Sur Aviation contacted us to say they were leaving, wished us well and for the future, similar to other emails that one receives occasionally, however...

Tonight I sent an email and it bounced, no problem but when I then visited www.SurAviation.com, that too is suspended?!?!

A quick check on Avinode and they have disappeared from there also!

Can anyone enlighten me as to what happened, if anything??

We had a great relationship with Cristina, Diego and Jennifer, so hope this is just a blip...

AA xx

If you tell me the Banks involved, I'll put my repossession hat on.

At the prices that they were flying for it is more surprising that they kept flying so long....

That's not entirely fair, blink are still trundling along - and have lasted longer than anyone gave them credit for (including myself I suspect).
