Nuune, what is the benefit for SFG to run national airline where they can't even manage to run functioning security forces? Could this be a private scheme dressed up as national to generate income for the SFG? if that is the case, it must be a smart way to do business.

Juxa Posted September 1, 2013 At least my next visit I will land Hargeysa:) Now all we need is proper planes where you don't melt mid flight and you don't land minus your luggage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted September 1, 2013 So it happened, now how to upload photos and videos on here?- Nuune and North I have posted pictures on my twitter- halka ka eega. The video I will post on my blog. Nuune it was 160 passenger capacity, laakin the flight was not full- 130 passengers. About the Somalia airline- I cannot think of a worst idea! National airlines are a drain and a sure way to loose money- it is a national pride but globally it is losing so much money- you are better off paying another flight to be your flag barer. It would be a waste of money for a country that does not have a lot of money. Sorry- unless you are Emirates and dont have to pay for your fuel or something! Juxa, it has AC- laakin the luggage always going missing with ET- even the Somali flights have better record! For some reason ET particularly in summer is terrible!

nuune Posted September 1, 2013 ^^ Same here, don't know how to use Twitter hehe, never used it Ibti, so it was 737-800, that is good at least, 130 passengers already, that is a record for ET for first day at least, planes don't have to be full anyway, most important is keeping the schedule even no passenger on board. Will try to locate the Twitter pics Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was closed to extend the runway in order for larger planes to land. Please confirm if that will happen, inaar. i'm not the spokesman of the Kulmiye Regime but i can get you the DG's email address and y'all can discuss this.

Che -Guevara Posted September 1, 2013 This is national event? Nuune. A lot of money to pay for something that might not be profitable. That's said, it will be good Somali Airlines in the sky. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
