Airlines airBaltic – Loauser or not?
Let’s check if the airline AirBaltic corresponds to the main signs of the Losuksost airline:

Partly yes, but still on the booking systems, airlines are sold.
4. Lack of places in the landing coupons.
No. Places are indicated in the landing coupons, including when registering via the Internet.
5. The use of cheap, less filled secondary airports and departure early in the morning or late in the evening.

Unknown when born myth. CheapOh airports – right, but airplanes fly from morning to evening, all airlines, Therefore, naturally, there are departures and the day too.
7. Simple routes, routes are built on the principle of point to point (direct flights between the airports) instead ofUse of intermediate landings in hubs.
Long time is not the biggest in the worldE PRESIDENTS AND PRATERATEL OF LOUCHES – SOUTHWEST – uses a hub system, equal Like many others (Jetblue, Airberlin, Tiger Airways, Germanwings).

Fate attendants never engage in passengers on the flight.
eleven. There are no passenger promotion programs.
Nonsense, many lowKost-carriers have a mile program (Southwest, Jetblue, Spirit, Germanwings and many others).
> Airasia offers two classes of service, but no one Will not say that Airasia is not a louck
No need to compare Asia and Europe. There is sideways.
> Very many Loadost Carriers have several types of aircraft (Airasia, Virgin Blue, Flybe, Jetblue) – for medium and neighboring routes.
Well, can’t AIRasia fly to Paris from Yuvao and Sin-Kul on the same plane. And Flybe not LoweCOFT Once – on the prices of their look. Southwest In general, almost the only oneMpania, which in the US baggage takes free and that? They have their own specifics – American.

Ryanair through the systemrites and are now implemented only for those who paid the reserve of specific places. And OSteel after all occupy themselves – a huge screaming crowd – who managed, he sat down.
>Cheap airports in Torne
That’s the emphasis on this, and not on the morning.
>For a long time, no longer, the world’s largest loucking and progenitor, SouthWest – uses a hub system, as well as many others (JetBlue, Airberlin, tiger airways, germanwings).
Americans they are Americans – there is competitiveat the air large, and by rail no one goes. No need to interfere with them. Germanwings Sale does not please especially, in fact he is purely nominally losable, t. To. belongingEit Lufthansa. Similarly, we can say that LH Loauser. Airberlin Soon in the AlianceC will go – there are no kept.
>Flight attendants are never engaged inPassengers on flight.
And you yourself believe that never? In Permy regiterLuftganzaya flight attendants earlier on LH Pee-GoJ-FRA, for example. And flight attendsess airFrance is trying to make a remove salon – trash in the cabin personally saw when landing!!!
> Nonsense, many loucking carriers have a mile program (Southwest, jetblue, spirit, germanwings and many others).
Americans do not need to compare – they compete there with traditional carriers, so everything is possible there. A Germanwings – there LH hoses and soon we will write a new article that GermaNWings – this is no longer a louck. 🙂
