I agree with Nightfire and Bubba.
PeterPaul is obviously associated with the airline and has delusions about it's customer service, it's ability to make a profit and possibly it's ability to survive.
Like Bubba - I also had Sky cancel one of my flights within 48 hours of departure. Since I'd already paid for hotels, car hire and airport parking I was forced to book (at very short notice) a more expensive alternate flight.
Six weeks later (despite written assurances from the airline) there is still no sign of a refund from them.
Also - When I originally requested my refund they insisted that I e-mailed them (in a totally insecure manner) my name, address, credit card holder's address and credit card number to their customer service e-mail address.
When I first saw that mail I was convinced it was a phishing e-mail from Nigeria but a phonecall to their customer services (in Hungary) confirmed that this is their normal way of doing business. Naturally I refused to hand over this info. They already have it from my orginal booking which at least, was made via a secure connection.
So PeterPaul...
- If you are representing Sky - then please can you arrange for my rebate to finally take place.
- If you are not representing Sky - then perhaps the above may make you reconsider your view on the airline.
PS: My alternate flight was via WizzAir - Good service, friendly cabin crew and no problems whatsoever when dealing with them...Take note, SkyEurope!

I only wish that either they end this bull*** really soon or sort their economical situation.
This situation is a Loose-Loose one hands down. It's bad for them that are unable to gain the confidence of those who might be able to still save them and bad for us customers with our money stuck in there and worst of all not knowing what's gonna happen with our reservations (and not only the airline ones, but also the hotel)
I'm sick and tired of this, really hope that all comes to and end, either a good or bad one.

Has the Sky finally fallen?
Is was 13th March when I confirmed to Sky that I wanted a refund for the flight they cancelled.
It was 27th March when Sky e-mailed me to say the refund has been approved and was on it's way to me.
Since then - my weekly requests for an update have all been ignored by Sky.
8 weeks later and still no refund and no replies from Sky.
I've phoned them a couple of times during the early weeks but they told me they would only deal with refund queries in writing. (ie: I need to e-mail them so they can ignore me)
My Credit card company have also tried to reach Sky in the last two weeks and failed?
PeterPaul - Are you still out there?

Today is 12 May, and the delayed accounts are due for publication on 15 May. Anyone wanna make a bet that the accounts will be published on 15 May instead of just another 1 month postponement ?
Any new on this matter?
For those who missed it, here's the announcement in all its glory...
=> EANS-Adhoc: SkyEurope Holding AG announces the further extension of York loans, postponement of the publication of its annual financial statements <=

Possibly they are now wiping it off their fa(?)ces, reading the news that passengers are totally ignoring the ugly, and run to book tickets with SkyEurope, while investors continue to back it, adamantly. How pathetic for one or two people writing in a blog with a dozen fake nicknames, all the same couple trying to disguise as a crowd. What a pair of cheaply-bought charlatans.
No news in this topic. The real pilots and passengers have left this topic. Al that remains is...
Don't try to fill in the space below with much more of the above, it is foul-odour.

Q2 Results
Hi,
You can find the results on the SkyEurope website. Here are a few highlights:
Q2 net loss: EUR 18M (including EUR 3.2M redelivery costs)
Total equity: EUR -97.58M
Cash and cash equivalents: EUR 460,000
Retained losses up to Q2 09: EUR 220.93 M

Retained losses up to Q2 09: EUR 220.93 M
At the date of these financial statements, material uncertainties exist regarding the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. These material uncertainties relate to ability of the Group to raise additional financing to meet its short and medium term liquidity needs and to reverse historical operating losses as indicated in the consolidated financial statements.

This little gem pretty much sums up the future.

How many years can they continue without a profit? They have never made one as far as I know. This seems to be an airline that never needs to make a profit and has been a total commercial failure but always has a willing investor ride in on a White horse at the 11th hour. How can this be?
