Airlines news

The Kingfisher Airlines fiasco resumes haunting its owner and employees even a decade later. An Indian airline has gone from promising 5-star service to passengers to operating out of funds to pay its employees. Its owner, Vijay Mallya, who is now in the UK, is often in the information at court trials, and every time a new sentence is declared, he scratches the wounds of several former workers who are still waiting for their dues to be paid.

World2Meet, the Spanish tourist group division under the Iberostar Group, is jet-setting its long-haul airline off for broader destinations as World2Fly inaugurates flight operations between Madrid and Orlando. Interestingly, the inaugural flight service was only marketed as a package through travel agencies, specifically Spanish agency NewBlue.
