Czech Airlines will introduce new connections

Czech Airlines, the country’s national carrier, is set to introduce connections to a number of new destinations including Marseille, Damascus, Almaty and Tbilisi. The new routes will be serviced within the new flight schedule beginning on March 30, a Czech Airlines representative said on Thursday. This is the first expansion of the airline’s network after several years of stagnation. The Czech Airlines currently have 50 aircraft flying to almost 70 destinations. While in 2005, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy with nearly 500 million crown deficit, last year it made a profit of 111 million crowns, or more than 6.7 million U.S. dollars.
