Mar 1, 2006 (newstodate): KrasAir failed in its bid for Hungarian carrier Malev in last year's fifth attempt at privatisation, but the interest remains.
The earlier, aborted attempt met with strong union and political opposition in Hungary, but the Russian carrier KrasAir remains intent on a fresh effort.
KrasAir reportedly sees strong potentials in a coordination between the two airline's networks, and the director-general of KrasAir is a member of the delegation accompanying the Russian president on this ongoing visit to Hungary.
KrasAir is a leading member of the Russian airline alliance, AiRUnion comprising Omskavia, KrasAir, Sibaviatrans, Samara Airlines, Domodedovo Airlines, and Sakhalinskiye AviaTrassy, and Malev will join the oneworld alliance by May, 2006.
