It is confirmed that 1 A321, 2 MD83 and 17 Saab 2000 will be withdrawn.
-200 pilots, 200 cabin crew and 300 ground staff will have to leave.
-11 destinations from both Zurich and Basel will be closed for the next Summer season.

There will be 106 aircraft total left in the fleet.

The load factor for January from/to Basel was only of 35% !

My guess is that the BSL hub will disappear within one year or two...
Any comment?
