Thank God. Because your current "jokes" aren't funny and the cutesy clips are unprofessional. Your core content is good but it's presented by a 7th grader.
As a flight attendant for 33+ years starting my humble beginning with Eastern Airlines, Northwest Orient and now Delta I wouldn’t like to see ANY airlines disappear it would hurt a lot of people not to mention airline enthusiasts like me wishing everyone all the best and like always FLY SAFE..😊😊
Would love Norwegian Air to recover I flow with them twice to the USA once from Belfast and second from Dublin I loved them they served nice food and their staff were very nice
And today, in January 2020 the Norwegian gouvernment is giving Norwegian Airlines a bailout to fight the possibele bankrupcy, they might still make it, but on a smaller scale.
Yes but on the other hand they completely gave up on their long-haul flights 😕 Plus Wizz Air is getting agressive on expanding in Norway, eating a lot of Norwegian's market. Let's see how all this turns out...
2:58 dont get confused That's old Compass Australia airline with 2 A300B-600R leased by Monarch airlines UK in 1990s to 2000s The US Regional called Compass airlines had a fleet of Embraer and Bombardier small Regional aircrafts
The A300-600R was used in Australian Compass (Mark 1) in 1989-1990 with most of the staff coming from Ansett.. After they went bust the first time they came back as Compass (Mark 2) this time with narrow body jets similar to an MD-80 from memory between 1992-1993 or thereabouts. I remember the Chairman of Compass Mk 1 (Brian) criticising the choice of narrow bodied aircraft by Compass Mk 2 predicting they would also fail. Brian was right.
In south korea, EASTER JET is almost bankrupt situation... Before Wu han virus pandemic, Easter Jet owned more than 20 aircraft. But now except 2 B737MAX8 and 2 B737-800, all of the aircraft were retired. Even all of the pilots lost their B737 license and all of the cabin crew were fired.
Air Mauritius was already ailing before the pandemic. It didn't buy ONE A 330 neo but also 2 or 3 A 350 creating a large debt at a time the company was finding difficulty to repay. Pity as it is one of the pride of our small state. Let's hope it gets back with serious restructuring.
Actually Sri Lankan sues Airbus for $1 Bn in court for the bribery case (and I think they will win) so even if they are not doing so good, this money will certainly help them. Air India is now surviving only on taxpayer's money, so not very good. But they're looking into privatising the company so they're still deciding on the right person. These discussions are ongoing since 2019 but maybe it will be concluded soon since the airline industry tends to recover little by little.
You failed to mention that Avianca is the Colombian flag carrier founded in the city of Barranquilla where Shakira was born; it's the second oldest commercial airline in the world, and is still operating a number of flights. I Travel with them both on international as well as domestic flights quite often. Would be a great shame to see such a great enterprise disappear from the skies. Best of luck to all !
from argentina, i can tell you here we have a few airlines in the same possition, LATAM argentina, Andes Lineas Aereas, Avianca Argentina, Norwegian Argentina.... if you do a second top ten, there you have a little more info
@@Top10Aviation Avianca is not totally dead, the Colombian government has injected a large sum of money into the company (which caused a stir in the country as the Colombian public generally disagreed) and just now they have created new routes and taken over others.
Before the pandemic Flybe was expanding rather too fast; perhaps making unrealistic investment. It was brave, but I think they were in trouble before the pandemic. I do hope Norwegian come out of this and recover. I use them, and they run a great service.
As the commentator said I was SHOCKED to see the last Three names in the list !!!! Shocked because seeing these names FIRST time in my Life !!!!!! Never heard those Three or even these ten names before .
Miami Air. I was one of their Flight Mechanics. They have restarted. They have new ownership and are working through the FAA but they do have 2 planes on the cert.
I hope Avianca, solves its financial problems, it would be sad to see the second oldest airline actually in operations, I say this because I'm mexican and in 2010 we lost Mexicana de Aviación, the third oldest airline in the world at that time
@@Top10Aviation Yeah!, In Latin America we have some airlines that have been operating for a while, Líneas Aereas Nacionales LAN (Now LATAM) has been operating since 1929, Aeromexico since 1934 or Aerolíneas Argentinas, since 1949, here in Mexico for example we have Volaris or Viva Aerobus, which after the loss of Interjet are the two other major players, are quite new, founded around 2005
The Compass aircraft shown in the video is an Australian company which stopped operating around 20 yers ago. It had nothing to do with the American regional airline.
The bankrupted Avianca is the brazilian subsidiarie. The original Avianca (the one with 100 plus years) is the colombian, that has quite of finance problems, but still flying.
Certainly, but the saddest part is when it comes to the employees working there. A lot of people's lives depend or were depending on that one single company
SAA too they have seized operations since December and there are business rescue practitioners. It’s a shame from Africa’s no. 1 airline to a bankrupt airline struggling to keep afloat
How many of these bankrupt airlines have virtually closed down airports? For One, Flybe has nearly closed down Southampton in UK, with just a handful of flights operating now, and no weekend flights. Over 90% of flights were Flybe. The airport wants to extend the runway for larger aircraft, but has been turned down so far. Also, restricted night flights, and opening times for this airport. A great airport with a rail station as part of the airport, but sadly in the wrong place.
You say Braathens regional airlines ceased operations? then why there is braathens regional airlines ATR 72-600’s still flying to my local airport in stockholm?
Few things… Number 8 - Compass Airlines. You show compass airlines australia that went bust in 1993. Compass Airlines that you refer is livery totally different.
Virgin Australia is still operating, it was purchased by an American finance company who have decided to change the business culture of the group. Unfortunately they are currently just scraping the barrel to survive in a Domestic market that Qantas owns.
Norwegian is getting rid of all its langhaul airchraft. All 787 Dreamliners are going back to lessors. A new company, Norse Atlantic is beeing created these days. They will take over some of Norwegians Dreamliners. Among the founders are Bjørn Kjos, founder of Norwegian :-)
Well this is very disgusting. What for? To recruit the same crew with even lower conditions contracts and make their life even more miserable. I am surprised the Norvegian government still supports these kind of businesses that promote social dumping and contributes to degrade the conditions of aviation professionals.
@@Top10Aviation Norwegian is not state owned., wich is why this happens. It is sad, but it's not much the state can do, and in most cases the companies is not even registered in Norway.

Philippines Airlines has since filed for bankruptcy a month or 2 ago.
Ask 100 Americans about Miami Air and 99 of them will say that they have never heard of the company.
Damn, i was so hoping that Ryanair was on this list
Same lol
Jetair,A few Indonesian airlines, Scoot,Tigerair etc are missing.
Flybe was about to close long before the pandemic....it was a client in a company i used to work , the pandemic just helped speed up the process
In any one Airlines going under, thousans of staff will be layoff ... how sad

Yeah, I am really sorry for the people that were actually proud and were relying on airlines like Air Mauritius
are Sri Lankan Airlines + Air India also not suffering?

I'm surprised they didn't give an honorable mention to South African Airways. Didn't they file for bankruptcy or something?
They were broke before COVID 19
Yeah also flybe went bankrupt before
For flybe it happened just at the beginning of the pandemic, in March 2020
Interjet 🇲🇽 large fleet of A320s, and one of the very few civilian operator of the SU 100 ✈️
