Topic: CityBird


  
  CityBird - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CityBird was an airline founded in 1996 and based in Brussels, Belgium.
Citybird employed over 600 employees as of 2001 and was listed on the NASDAQ EUROPE under ticker symbol CBIR (Citybird holding SA) in November 1997.
They used the "point-to-point" approach to flying rather than the "hub and spoke" wherein all flights (be it from Los Angeles, Newark, Oakland, Miami, Orlando or Mexico City) all went to Brussels.

Citybird works like any radio-taxi service -- except that instead of a fl sedan arriving on call, a sporty motor scooter pulls up.
Citybird's founders also knew that to woo serious professionals as customers, they needed equally serious drivers.
Malval struck a deal in early 2004 for Citybird to carry the airline's passengers to and from the airport.

Dr. ARTHUR E. Holmes Beach, FL CityBird's pleasant surprises As lifelong travelers, my wife and I have experienced almost every level of airline service -- to the point that very little surprises us anymore.
But we were in for a real surprise with the excellent service offered by CityBird, the Belgian airline, both on our Miami-Brussels flight from Miami, Oct. 16, '99, as well as on the Oct. 28 return.
A real surprise was that, as a matter of policy, CityBird will upgrade any traveler to business class for only an additional $300 per person at check-in, providing of course that space is available.

Belgian airline CityBird seems to be on the verge of collapsing, even though a Brussels commercial court yesterday accepted its filing for protection from creditors.
One of the conditions imposed by the court was that Thomas Cook, the travel group, go ahead with its plan to take over the ailing Belgian airline.
But it remains unclear, at this stage, whether the Belgian carrier has the means to survive during the legal proceedings.

Once there, passengers can connect to other European cities by rail or on one of CityBird's low-fare air partners, like Virgin Express.
The best part about CityBird fares is their flexibility-all tickets are fully changeable and refundable up to 24 hours before departure.
The downside: With only five planes in its fleet, flight frequencies are a bit thin and a single breakdown can cause significant delays.
