All the airlines operating out of Baku would have been happy to help SQ by flying passengers out of Baku. Why was SQ not able to organize it?
Beside the staff of the foreign airlines in Baku there are for sure caterers, hotels and restaurants in Azerbeijan who would have been delighted to sell soda and sandwiches for a good price to SQ. What did SQ?
The SQ staff went out of the airport and was taking a rest in a hotel.
