Yesterday, President Francesc Antich informed that he is looking for ways to save the Futura airlines and give assurance to its 1,200 staff members after the Palma-based company went into administration.
The airline industry is unable to withstand the high fuel costs. With Futura airline wanting to reduce its fleet to half, the President said that today, a special committee will meet to make an analysis of this issue. He said that he wants the airline officials also to be involved in the meeting to understand the causes and other details of this problem.
He also said that since Balearics is a major tourist destination, good transport facilities should be provide to the tourists as well as the residents.
If you are travelling from the Uk or are planning to come to Majorca to view any businesses for sale then it is always worth confirming your flight details prior to departure. The downfall of Futura should not affect your travel plans or indeed affect any business you are planning here as it was not a major tourist airline.
