What the SkyEurope website also describes is the large expansion out of Krakow. Yes they are chopping a few routes but they are adding a whole load more. The first of the 73Gs arrives in a few weeks and the first few are going to be flying out of KRK to support the expansion. Loads are good.

Sky now have 12 737s split between KRK, BTS and BUD with a load of 700s on the way. PRG should do well.

Sky had issues with WAW airport in the past (overnight parking charges, fines for landing after 22:00) which resulted in routes being chopped. Maybe Sky and Warsaw will have a renaissance when the low-cost airport North of the city is open.

Sky was floated a few months back and is doing well. I wish them success as Sky is a much more pleasant experience from the traveller's point-of-view - Seat numbers allocated/treated like a human not cattle etc.
