NEWS FLASH
Low cost carrier Transavia is cancelling up to 240 flights this July and August due to capacity restrictions at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport which will affect its operations to Ljubljana in the coming period. The airline will reduce services between the two cities from four weekly to three weekly starting next week, with further cuts to be implemented from the week starting July 18, with just two weekly rotations to be maintained. Frequencies are expected to return to three weekly from the week starting August 8, and to four weekly from September, however, this is likely to change. The carrier’s new service between Orly and Ljubljana will remain unchanged at two weekly flights. In both Europe and North America, thousands of flights have been cancelled and hundreds of thousands of passengers have had their trips disrupted over the past few weeks, primarily due to a shortage of qualified personnel at airports to handle the recent surge in passenger traffic. The rapid elimination of Covid-19 protocols and restrictions have generated a significant increase in the demand for air travel, with volumes of passengers that haven’t been seen in more than two years.
Flew with them a week or so ago. They were sold out
ReplyDeleteJust two weekly.. and it used to be almost double daily before pandemic...
ReplyDeleteTransavia had 5x weekly at most
DeleteAnd Adria daily.. 12 weekly total.. almost double daily.
DeleteSoit's not pre-pandemic but pre-adria
DeleteI believe 2019 is counted as pre-pandemic year and that year there were almost double daily flights to AMS.
DeleteThis is a joke. 3xdaily KLM to ZAG can be maintained, while 4xweekly to LJU is reduced. They better not even try returning to LJU. When CRO enters Schengen, LJU will become a distant memory to many in Slovenia.
ReplyDeleteTypo - 2xdaily AMS-ZAG with KLM.
DeleteLJU-AMS had around 100.000 passengers in 2019 while ZAG-AMS had around 160.000. In peak summer this year last two weeks in July and first week in August Transavia has just one weekly LJU-AMS on sale while ZAG-AMS has three daily flights with KLM and Croatia + two weekly ZAG-EIN with Ryanair. Can someone from Fraport or one of their fanboys please explain this reduction?!?
DeleteKLM also cut ZAG, from 60 to 59 in July.
DeleteOh no, poor ZAG. Only 59 instead of 60? Thats a shame. So ZAG will have 59 with KLM, 31 with Croatia and 9 with Ryanair. Thats 99. LJU will have just 9 flights. Also just saw Transavia removed every flight from sale from 18th to 24th July. No flights in a single week in peak of the summer. Bravo!
