Canceled flights July 5-7th 2012
So Pluna has canceled all flights from today through the 7th because of the strike. It seems the lead investors have walked away and it's now in the hands of the govt. Rumor has it that Buquebus, the Uruguayan incoproated by Argentine owened transport company, mostly ferries but some flights, is looking at buying them. Buquebus also bought up all the competeting ferry companies and is even rumored to have 'encouraged' protesters to block the bridge between Uruguay and Argentina for 5 years, stopping bus traffic.

It sucks to think that Buquebus would be allowed to control almost all transport between Uruguay and Argentina.

My dream is that LAN will step in and buy up Pluna.
