Well I heard that the press lauch flight was a one off chartered Air Holland B763 with an Air Slovakia sticker on one side only....

Furthermore it turned up at Brum 9 hours late and the press were begged to stay. The fact that no aircraft have been signed by Air Slovakia and no tickets have been sold as of today in the marketplace added together with no operating permit from The India DGCA and a question mark over the ASA/traffic rights plus the fact that Air Slovakia are putting no money into the project only receiving a royalty payment for exposure of the 5th freedom rights all seems a liitle funny!

I hope this goes ahead as its good news from BHX but I cant see them up and running for June 29th especially if they have to sign B757' get them registered, train crews and all the rest!
