Yes, there is no "s" after Aircraft.

Thank you for your correction. I did realise right after I made the post but the server was not taking the correction when I tried to correct it...cheers:ok:

Apparently in the ME there is. As it seems to be included from time to time in documents. :uhoh:

Give this guy a break.

That extra "S" is a common mistake anyway!
 
Amazingly nobody has paid attention to the news about air arabia with 100 new A/C in 5 years! Air arabia is becoming an exemplary model of the booming LCC.

Air Arabia depended heavily on DXB traffic for it's performance. How will FlyDubai affect their future plans?

Have to wonder if they will open a hub in Bahrain given there will be 3 airlines in that country all trying to fight for the DMM traffic.

G9 are lobbying the Egyptian authorities strongly to approve 'Air Arabia Egypt' with operations out of CAI. It will be an uphill struggle to get the necessary approval.

G9 currently operate 25x weekly flights from SHJ to Egypt; ALY (18x), ATZ (4x) and LXR (3x).

100 aircraft
 
Well guys, speaking of different hubs falls in line with all the aircraft. I hear they are working on Cairo...so we will see!

Where else do you think would be feasible?

If you believe all the "confirmed" orders from everyone in the ME, expect to see around 1000 additional new planes out here in the next 10-15 years.

Nevertheless, an 'Air Arabia Egypt' LoCo with flights to Europe as well as the ME probably makes more sense than some of the other concepts being used right now.

Arabia
 
Makes sense!! Could this be the time to purchase Arabia shares in the DFM? Casablanca base is already showing positive signs...Second and third quarter results may continue to show positive trends!

100 planes??
 
i searched the A.A. website yet i do not see any new postings on the

press section for 100 planes? nor do i see selection dates for hiring, so i

ask anyone where did you hear about 100 planes?? and if so what might

be the delivery dates for these planes?:ugh:

Spoogie 27th Jun 2009 05:23

100
 
If you read the link which was the first post made in this thread you will see...or do a google search! I agree that the press section on the website says nothing; also there are no interview dates yet. The thread started from the news article which was written.
