Quite a nice write up on the 800. Was an interesting and educative read.

The obvious question, now that the company is being acquired, is whether the aircraft are actually going to be taken up ...

The obvious question, now that the company is being acquired, is whether the aircraft are actually going to be taken up ... The aim is not to shut down WOW. There is no plans to cut WOW routes. Especially the flights to India will need more A330. So I expect ordered frames to be delivered. Payments with the orders and progress payments must have been done. How far that only involve the lessor Avolon and what payments WOW have made to Avolon, I do not know.

Their commitments doesn't go away with a new owner. True, but we have seen in other cases that 'firm' orders may sometimes be canceled, deferred or amended. New owners often introduce a different policy ...

New owners often introduce a different policy ... The firm order is from Avolon. WOW is leaing frm Avolon. WOW is not going bust, due to Icelandair buying them.
