Close to the end, or ?
Be serious guys. There is no way an airline can be profitable operating scheduled services out of Ras Al Khaimah. With Dubai International and Shjarjah an hour down Emirates Road, the geography speaks against RAK Airways.
They can hire and fire managers as much as they want to (and they do). As long as The Board, together with the senior management do not define a business plan that is somewhat feasible, RAK Airways will go nowhere. You can write pages upon pages about a new fleet. A new course has to be set. Period.
They have been operating in Kinshasa for a few months. Probably the most profitable operation they have seen since the start. I believe wet lease or other forms of charter operation is the way for this airline.
But, they need a management that can/will/have the views to understand this. If not. Well.............................
Another side to the RAK Airways story is the way they go about their AOC. As said above, and I agree, one day the GCAA will say stop.
