Malev belongs to the government having been renationalised. However the EU says they have to pay back $400 million of illegal state subsidies. So how the government can prop them up further is as yet unclear.

It is suggested they are operating under some form of chapter 11 equivalent. However presumably airports and fuel companies are going to insist on cash up front, which is going to make further operation at best complicated.
