SkyEurope launches new plan to attract passengers

"The promotion entitled "Corrupting passengers" consists of no charges on the sale of tickets and on reimbursement of zl.1 of airport fees," said Eryk Klopotowski from SkyEurope. "We want to illustrate that flying is cheap and such a form of transport may be used more often than just once a year." The struggling airline has also recently restarted its so-called additional fees which it had abandoned seven months ago. "While lowering the prices the company calculated the costs related to fuel, insurance and passengers' safety," said Klopotowski. "The difference of costs creates the additional fees for passengers." Tomasz Dziedzic from the Tourism Institute says that the carrier's strategy shows that it is desperately looking for income, adding that next year may make or break the airline's future.
