NEWS FLASH
Air Montenegro’s fleet will initially have no markings or livery as the carrier rushes to commence operations by the start of June. The airline’s CEO, Predrag Todorović, said the company’s first Embraer E195 jet, which is currently in Maastricht preparing for service, will have no markings. He noted the selection of a new logo and corporate identity is ongoing. The jet will eventually be painted. Air Montenegro will operate its first flight on June 1 between Podgorica and Sarajevo to transport the Montenegrin football team to Bosnia and Herzegovina for an international friendly scheduled for June 2. Mr Todorović confirmed the first scheduled services will be from Podgorica and Tivat to Belgrade.
Wouldn't it just have been better to leave the Montenegro Airlines livery and just remove the Montenegro Airlines title or simply the "airlines" part.
ReplyDeleteThis is going from bad to worse. First they start flying with one aircraft then they get destroyed by JU's number of frequencies, then they decide to fly an all white plane which will make passengers suspicious...
ReplyDelete...and now we find out that they plan on flying first to SJJ as a charter flight. Seems like they are already looking where they can make money since they can't do it in BEG.
Liquidation of Montenegro Airlines was a costly mistake. Now MA has been officially closed all its remaining assets are now not available to the new airline ToMontenegro. That includes its maintenance base, tools, equipment, spare parts stock and the third aircraft.
ReplyDeleteI wish them all the best, although I believe JU will smash them.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed flying with them except when I had to fly on ancient Carpatair F100 with
Romanian crew.
It was always interesting by transfer in TGD that you had to go through passport control officially leaving Montenegro no matter you never entered it before.
I don't think they expected JU to react like this. They probably counted on them leaving some empty space for them to survive. Finally JU is thinking like a true business.
DeleteLH is thinking like a true business.
DeleteI would not fly with them in the first few months because everything seems so rushed that I would have safety concern among other things (canceled flights or delays).
ReplyDeleteWhat about the IATA, ICAO codes and Callsign? They have only two weeks to sort it out.
ReplyDeleteIt would be weird not to use "Montenegro" like YM did...
seems like they will use w2 to issue tickets on their flights at first
DeleteMount Eagle!
DeleteFunnily, MA and MX appear to be both available, according to IATA search (from defunct Malev and Mexicana)
ReplyDeleteVery smart marketing strategy.
ReplyDeleteNo money to stick simple sticker with company name?) or they head towards full acmi model
ReplyDeleteProbably this is cost cut advice from LH consulting. Suppose next one will be providing mini salt and pepper only on request for passengers buying meals
ReplyDeleteOK, but plane livery is just one aspect of airline branding. How their check in desks, boarding passes, luggage tags and website will look like in this interim period?
ReplyDeleteACMI 'no name' airline.
ReplyDeleteSlicno kao JAT Airways za vreme sankcija
ReplyDeleteNe za vreme sankcija su bili ofarbani avioni. Bili su beli izmedju 2005 i 2007 jer im je bilo jeftinije da ne boje avione.
Delete@chelica2
DeleteNikada nije postojao JAT Airways. Postojao je JAT i Jat Airways. JAT je bio fenomenalna fantasticna izvanredna kompanija. Jat Airways je bio katastrofa, jad i tuga. Jos jednom molim : Ne koristiti JAT za Jat. Naizgled nebitno, ali u sustini nebo i zemlja.
True dat. Velika je razlika.
DeleteZar se ne zove TO Montenegro?
ReplyDeleteZove se
