Situation at BLQ this morning:
NO AZ flights to anywhere, no AZ a/c on the aprons. Italian public are aware, a TV channel had a crew at the airport to film some of the scenes (not that there was much to see). So as far as the public are concerned, it is over.
Meridiana on the other hand is doing roaring business (for obvious reasons). Looks like they picked up some of the slack from AZ flights being cancelled.
The only politician who cares about AZ is Berlusconi. He was re-elected (for the N-th time) on the promise that he would rescue the airline, and he will not let it fail.
