Mag,
I understand your point but want to clarify something on your comment. First of all, Nepal Airlines is not payrolled by government. The Airlines has been able to pay its staff through its own means. So I don't think Nepal Airlines or any other domestic airlines should be held accountable for job not properly done by other agency. For example there is Immigration Office, Customs Office and many more who have their own field of responsibility. There has been instances of blaming RA for all the shortcomings of these agencies in the past like you did in your post. For example if there is a long queue in immigration counter it is RA's fault, if the custom is strict it is again RA's mismanagement and so on. Responsibility of smooth operation of airport runway lies to Civil Aviation Authority.
True, there are many instances of corruption during the purchase of aircraft in the past and I also agree that CEOs of RA were not probed or punished for their wrongdoings, but should we impose a full stop on its plan to buy more aircraft and fly to new sectors just because we fear same thing will happen again? I remember there was not so much fuss when RA purchased Airbus last year. And yes, this should set an example for future purchases too.
If you have read my posting properly I said "Nepal Airlines achieved the reputation of accident free operations of its international flights for decades? " I still stand by this point.
As for the banning by EU is concerned these are not permanent ban for Nepal Airlines and the points raised by EU Civil Aviation resulting in this ban can be worked out and solved as and when the airline is ready to fly to Europe again.
Finally, if someone enjoys the perks provided by their employer what is wrong with that ? Don't other corporations offer similar perks to their employees ? And if you are jealous about it then it is your problem.
