AirExplore Is Next in Line after smartlynx
Another subsidiary of Avia Solutions Group, the Slovak ACMI operator AirExplore, will soon cease to exist as an independent company.
Hopefully the entire ASG group will fall down soon.

Cant wait to see Avion Express, Airbaltic and the rest of EU AOC airlines which hire ICAO cheap pilots to go bust soon, following the Smartlynx

Well… do your homework. Airbaltic has significant debt, notably a large €380 million high-interest bond (14.5%) maturing in 2029, used partly to refinance earlier debt, leading to recent credit rating downgrades (to 'CCC+' by Fitch) due to high leverage, weaker-than-expected 2025 performance, and liquidity strains, despite strong market position, with an IPO planned for 2026 to improve its financial health and reduce reliance on costly debt.

Avion Express ICAO pilot got caught flying with forged documents over Europe just to bring down the terms and conditions of the pilots in EU
What exactly of that are gossip?
The sooner they go under, the better for our standards and for the safety of the passengers
