Δεν ξερω ποιοι θυμάστε τον Hans Rudolf Wöhrl, ο πολυεκατομμυριούχος αυτος κατέθεσε αίτηση σημερα το πρωί να αγοραση το συνολο του ομιλου της ΑΒ πληρες. Περισσοτερα δεν εγιναν γνωστα. Ο κος Wöhrl ειχε αγοραση την Deutsche BA το 2002 από την British Airways για 1ε και μετα από 10 χρονια την πουλησε στην Air Berlin για αγνωστο ποσο!
 
Δεν είσαι ενημερωμένος. Το 2003 την αγόρασε, και το 2006 την πούλησε για 120εκ €.
 
Η Air Berlin ανακοίνωσε τη διακοπή μέχρι νεωτέρας του προγράμματος TopBonus. H συλλογή μιλίων σταματά, ενώ οι εξαργυρώσεις, ίσως ξεκινήσουν όταν (και αν) ξεκαθαρίσει το τοπίο. Όλα τα εισιτήρια ισχύουν κανονικά, ενώ φαίνεται, πως η FlyNiki θα μείνει εκτός χρεωκοπίας. Παραθέτω νεώτερη ενημέρωση σε μορφή ερωταπαντήσεων, που απέστειλε στην ΙΑΤΑ.

Σύμφωνα με τον γερμανικό τύπο ο όμιλος Lufthansa, η Condor και η Easyjet δείχνουν ενδιαφέρον για την ανάληψη τμημάτων της air berlin. Ενδιαφέρον είναι ότι η Easyjet φαίνεται να σχεδιάζει απόβαση στο DUS
 
Ελπίζω να επαναφέρουν και το Λονδίνο που σταμάτησανε πέρυσι..
 
easyjet, Lufthansa και Condor ανάμεσα στους ενδιαφερόμενους για κομμάτια της AirBerlin, με Lufthansa και Condor να διαγκωνίζονται για την απόκτηση της Niki, η Condor μάλιστα σε συνεργασία με τον ιδρυτή και πρώην ιδιοκτήτη της εταιρείας, Niki Lauda.

Όλα δείχνουν πλέον πως η Lufthansa κι η easyJet έχουν επιλεγεί ως αγοραστές για τα βασικά κομμάτια της airberlin.
 
Αυτή την στιγμή βρίσκονται 5-6 αεροσκάφη στον αέρα με τα περισσότερα να έχουν προορισμό αεροδρόμιο της Γαλλίας. Να φανταστώ ότι επιστρέφουν στην εταιρία leasing.
 
Reuters αναφέρει ότι σήμερα και αύριο 8 α/φ θα επιστραφούν στην AerCap, 2 α/φ στην LX και 1 α/φ στην Deucalion Aviation Fund. Θα έχουν ΜΟΝΟ 5 Α330-200 παλιά ήταν της LTU.
Να δούμε πότε τα 20 νοικάρικα (από τα 40) Α320 θα επιστραφούν.
 
Με €210 εκατομμύρια, η Lufthansa εξαγοράζει τις Niki και LGW (θυγατρικές της Air Berlin) και 81 αεροσκάφη και μαζί μετακινούνται και 3.000 άτομα από το προσωπικό. Στα σχέδια της είναι να ενσωματωθούν στη Eurowings ενώ η συνολική επένδυση κοστολογείται σε €1,5 δις και περιλαμβάνει και παραγγελίες νέων αεροσκαφών.
Η μετοχή της Lufthansa ανέβηκε 3,3% ενώ η συμφωνία αναμένεται να διευρύνει μεσοπρόθεσμα τα κέρδη της Eurowings κατά 70-90 εκατομμύρια ευρώ/έτος...
