Good for them ! I like the competition between Turkish, Qatar Airways, Emirates, and Etihat Airways! Unfortunately Tarom is nowhere!
Tarom is under state patronage. It is normal to grow harder and you cannot compare TAROM with 3 large airlines supported by Arab hedgehogs, people living on mounds of money! :)
In the world, state-owned airlines went bankrupt (eg Malev case) or were privatized for greater freedom of development, to juggle financially!
Sorin, I do not compare Tarom, with people, with sheikhs, I compare Tarom with other state companies, which, with the exception of THA, 10-12 years ago, none existed !!!! I say 10-12 years ago, why, exactly when TArom, gave up racing spe Beijing, or BBK, or USA !!!! Tarom should also be privatized, but a real privatization, if that is the term! Why when Qatar Air was interested, we said no. I am very afraid that we will do a typical Romanian privatization, and soon Tarom follows in Malev's footsteps!
And I want a proper privatization! The idea is that in the last two years, Tarom has moved better! At present it even has a good image in the SkyTeam alliance, in the Eastern part of Europe and I can say that it has certain services even more ok compared to many other airlines.
They gave up long flights because they do not have airplanes for something and it is not profitable to make stops! Better focus on medium and short runs, but with very good services!
Let's hope Tarom will do even better and Malev won't follow!
If you do not invest as soon as possible in the acquisition of new and modern aircraft, and I mean B, A or Embraer, and not Atr, Taromm has no chance. cabin crew!
