Nobody should be worried for Air France, they have Politics on their side. EU competition laws, well they apply to others but not to Air France. Illegal subsidies...... no problem

It is a protectionist system that does circumvent the law. Same in Italy. Of course protecting national workers jobs is a priority for any government, but it should not be by unfair abuse of competition laws or denying full fifth freedom rights.

Why has no low cost airline ever succeeded in France???

Thats the reason you are safe, not because of what you are but rather who you know. The EU will sit idly as your government protect the Air France monopoly inspite of competition laws.

No disrespect to you or company NUAGEBLANC, but it isn't an even playing field.
