Dépèche transmise le 25 juin 2009 par PRNewswire
LONDON, June 25 /PRNewswire/ -- After publishing the new roster of blacklisted airlines ( ) by Europa on 8th April 2009, Air Valid is again forewarning travellers of the limitations of the blacklist when travelling abroad or reserving a plane ticket on the internet.

"Don't forget that this blacklist cites the airlines that the travel agencies cannot refer you to when you book travel from Europe. However, if you are living in a foreign country temporarily, or if you are booking directly through one of the airlines' sites that offers online reservation, you will not be informed that the airline is on the blacklist."
The information is relayed from to their 10,000 expatriate members, of whom 5,000 have been bloggers since January 2009.

Air Valid is present in nearly 45% of all online flight ticket searches in France.
