I suppose a big question is how much the global financial crisis will affect the region in 2009.
To be or not to be, that is the question.
As a casual observer one can not help observing contradiction in terms of low cost and premium class etc. I do realize that the demographics in this area are different to those in the West and indeed the far East, however Air Arabia has done a pretty good job of describing what works in this locale, particularly if the region is to be affected by what is happening in the rest of the world, which it will and indeed is, regardless of what they say.
The future will be interesting but hopefully not too exciting. I wish Bahrain Air all the best, however 'it ain't gonna be easy'.
Finally, what is an A-420....
