Spanair

Watched a tv program about them a couple years back it was filmed while they were moving from Madrid to Barcelona. The part that stuck in my memory was the part where they explain that the move would cause problems as it was the high season and utility was at its highest, the nw CEO that had come from easyjet asked what was the utilisation...8 to 10 hours a day!!!! the CEO laughed at this which the rest of the managers took badly and stated they should be doing at least 10-12 hrs.......At that point they were losing 10's of thousands of Euro's per day. am surprised they lasted this long! Good news for IB express.
