Did anyone realize the website is fully functional? All the website links from the image below work. Remember all the commotion about "the FAA will let the website be up when the cuffs can come off"? The website (which looks great) works; there is detailed info on fare rules, management bios, frequent flyer program, concierge services, their "Golden Rooster Club" for First and Business class passengers, etc. There are probably a few updates they'll make between now and certification, which is to be expected. There's even info on promotions, vacation packages, and most importantly, the INAUGURAL EVENT!
Then there's the PR released today that says simulator training will begin in February. Most people were probably expecting just a PR on Phase III, but it seems the cuffs are a little looser now...don't be surprised if we get a solid PR every week or couple weeks from here on out. Anyone who says Baltia won't make it - being as close to certification as we are - better have a VERY good reason for that claim...
