but the problem is that viking wanted to keep one a/c to operate the Iraq flights but the lessor didn't trust them..... probably because there is no cash or deposits to keep the leasing.
if the lessor doesn't trust them, do you think that it will change in the future? TTOO will start looking for other charter to do the flights that viking is "suposed" to fly next summer. TTOO need to sell seats now and until 3-4 months viking AB cannot assure that.
hope things can change in the future for viking but as they said before this winter is going to be tough.
