I believe we are about to operate there just to prove that the situation has improved rapidly there as ordered by our big brother- the US.
Chuck, who knows you might be right, however I don't agree. I am more inclined to suspect this is driven by local politics of solidarity as well as the new RJ connection.
Interesting to note that the big Gulf Airlines don't seem to want to get involved yet...I wonder why? I'm certain they are just as aware of the potential but obviously don't want to risk it at the moment.....like every other airline in the world apart from RJ and Austrian......

Safe flying all.
