Since Tuesday, September 24 2019, Adria Airways flights are stuck on the ground, as the companies’ losses and unpaid bills are piling up. Within days, the Slovenian airline has to find new investors to provide much needed cash for Adria to keep operations going. If this fails, the second airline in one week is filing for bankruptcy. Last Monday, One of the largest British tour operators and airlines Thomas Cook filed for bankruptcy, leaving more than 600.000 holidaymakers at risk and in despair.
