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.
