Why do you hope them going out of business?

Btw, Here is a clue why they won't:

In EU is illegal for the states to fund airlines. Maybe there was an exemption back in COVID, but it's 2025 now. If their only option to survive is state funds, this ain't gonna happen
You didn't quote me, but I believe that EU airlines which are importing ICAO licensed desperados to cut the labor cost of pilots in Europe, better go under before that spreads

Understood

Hello Guys.
Any recent feedback for Senior First Officers with fast track upgrade interview and assessment?
Also, with someone can share some infos from inside, such as benefits, salary, environment, schedule etc, it’s very welcoming.

Thank you in advance.

How far to bottom are you willing to reach for an EASA validation and an EU work permit?

I have an EASA ATPL with current type.

Go for it now then. AB is about to go bankrupt and you might bee too late fo an interview. Bring some warm clothes in case office will be closed and in -20 you will freeze to death walking back to terminal to catch a flight back to Brasil.

Please, just apply. They took a contract for ACMI in Uruguay, non of the European pilots wants to go there. For Latin American pilots should be fine. Though financial situation gets worse and worse

I’ve just applied to AB SFO, any news from assessment ? Thank you

Also, I have some concerns about medical certificate at Latvia/AIR BALTIC.

Someone flying at Ab or Latvia, could please PM me?
thank you

They were advertising bases throughout baltics, and you end up in Uruguay for 3k a month paying taxes in Latvia
Soviet mentality and latin american one found a proper match

Hi, feel free to send me a message, I work at BT as FO. Some users here are who have not passed airbaltic assessments, but still obsessed with the company, are trying to paint a varey bad image, but it’s not really true.

This Uruguay ACMI project can keep them alive for few more months, nobody would buy shares of a company with one billion euro in debt

There you go.
Lufthansa Group strengthens wet lease partnership with airBaltic

Article says airbaltic will take 14 millions from LH, but airbaltic's debt is over a billion with 14,5% interest

Concerning dept there is an Option in the bonds to be payed back early.

If there is no geopolitical shakeup the IPO takes place and with this money the bonds will partly be payed back.

The valuation at the time of the IPO should be much higher than the 14 Mio Lufti payed for 10%.

just my 2cents

The actual amount is not important. The 10% stake means that they won't let it go bust whatever happens.

What if tomorrow European Commission asks the 540 millions to be returned to state, like in Malev case which sent it under or the creditors demand the other 500 millions of debt? LH will pay a billion?

What if they don't ask for it after LH's lobbyists whisper something in their ear?
