Criză în aviaţie: falimentul airBaltic anunţă o iarnă grea pentru companii. Preţul combustibilului s-a dublat

airBaltic has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, raising concerns about a challenging winter for smaller airlines due to high fuel costs exacerbated by ongoing conflicts. The airline industry is facing significant financial pressures, with rising fuel prices impacting even low-cost carriers like Wizz Air, which is reducing fares to attract passengers. Analysts warn that smaller niche airlines are particularly vulnerable, and consolidation in the European market may accelerate as companies seek stability. While airBaltic looks for a strategic investor, the Chapter 11 process may provide an opportunity for restructuring and survival.
