you have to start somewhere. I wonder if EU govts/orgs will be forbid hire of/travel on these airlines even outside EU airspace. That might help push the point home in some cases.

I agree with your point that they, (the EU), have to start somewhere, I just wish that the powers that be would look at what is occurring right under their noses, right now.
Anyway, I suppose we should be grateful for small mercies, and the fact that, as you say, we have a starting point with at least something to build on.

This is a very good thing.
I personally witnessed the B/S with North East Airlines, registered in Swaisiland attempting to operate out of KSA.
I was furloughed from a ACMI carrier at the time.
They claim now that someone hijacked the AOC and this was not them.
More lies and deciet.
Still have the ID card and paperwork.
Never was paid as many others either.
Good on the EU.
Time for these people to hit the road.
A good company will never ask you to lie about records proficency or anything.
When we allow these things to happen we lower ourselves to another industry standard.
Before long we have no standards at all.
Then we complain as to why they are cutting our salaries.
Its our own fault, good on them for looking into the operating standards of these companies.
From what I have seen some low time guys will accept things such as this, just to get the foot in the door.
Time for this to stop.

What's wrong with Iceland?
Dear Freeway,
What's wrong with Icelandic airlines? I have flown Icelandair previously and it seemed fine to me. There is an Icelandic company flying from Hahn to Reykjavik which I was thinking of using.
Should I think again?

Perhaps this has something to do with a previous post on PPRuNe.

Air Universal is based out of Jordan. They moved from the Sierra Leone register quite a long time ago
A loophole in the rules so that others banned can follow
