Following
HNCA's acquisition of 35% of the Luxembourg airline, an inaugural flight was
scheduled for April 24th. As everyone knows the flight of the "City of
Ghengzhou", ready to go, was aborted 4 hours before takeoff. Cargolux was
not in possession of the required rights. Minister Bausch who had traveled to
China to witness and celebrate the arrival
of the first flight had to take the frustration, the criticisms and also
the entertaining comments at his expense.
Another
date for the inaugural flight was set on May 29, so to allow for ample time for
the bureaucratic hurdles to be cleared. So far they are not.
The
breaking news sound like a broken record: the inaugural flight had again to be delayed,
this time to June 14th. For an intransparent reason.
There
is in my opinion good news in this new delay. These are that there will be a
positive effect on the 2014 results, as these flights will be money losing
flights in the foreseeable future.
