FlySur goes bust – only took a month

Step up those who bet on “30 days” and collect your winnings. That’s how long it took for FlySur (www.flysur.com), “Andalucias first airline” to cease operations.

They were flying out of Cordoba airport with a single plane, to Barcelona, Vigo & Bilbao. It seems that Cordoba airport only has a “mobile” control tower, so when it was towed elsewhere, or if it was foggy, they had to land in Seville. This, as you can image, annoyed a few people. On some flights they had as few as one passenger. Average occupancy was under 25%.

Somebody lost one and half million euros on this nonsense. I mean, how many people want to go from Vigo to Cordoba on a daily basis?

And it’s this week biggest waste of money!
