I'm just getting the feeling that things ain't getting any better for X9.

I know they've cut back recently due to a/c unavailability (& the IAH news is well documented) but even their remaining routes (OSL & KSU/SVG) they seem to be struggling with?

If they keep canx flights or running very late they will for sure lose clientel.

Plus on their website they allude to the high costs of operating at ABZ which, along with rising fuel costs & the "credit crunch" seem to be stalling their plans. Are the BAA helping or are they just content to collect their pound of flesh until such time as the airline goes out of business?

I hope the Star doesn't implode & that they can get back to better times soon...but I am just not sure & it's not the impression I'm getting.
