SMARTLYNX AIRLINES: Criminal Investigation Has Been Launched

A criminal investigation has been opened into suspected fraud involving the management of SIA Smartlynx Airlines and the alleged fictitious sale of the airline to a new owner. BLACKLIST.AERO learned this information from a source familiar with the investigation. The case was initiated after a complaint was filed with the police by one of the creditors. It is also possible that additional complaints have been submitted by other defrauded counterparties of Smartlynx.

How to Check Avia Solutions Group for Possible Fraud: Guidance for Investors

Over the past week, investment analysts from companies holding Avia Solutions Group (ASG) bonds have contacted me twice, asking for a more detailed explanation of the SmartLynx bankruptcy. Their biggest concern is that the same situation could repeat with other companies within the ASG holding.

Why SmartLynx May Yet Find Its Way Back to Avia Solutions Group

The covert bankruptcy—legally framed as a “restructuring”—of SIA SmartLynx Airlines (Latvia), along with the highly probable collapse of SmartLynx Malta and SmartLynx Estonia in the near future, has become more than just a landmark event for the aviation market. Its consequences may amount to a full-fledged default tsunami, triggering a cascade of multimillion-euro non-payments across the industry.

FLY VAAYU: CHEAP SHOW-OFF AT THE DUBAI AIRSHOW WITH OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY

Every time I fly to Dubai for exhibitions, I witness the same scene outside the hotels. A Bugatti or Lamborghini pulls up to the entrance, the chauffeur steps out, and hands the wheel to someone walking out of the lobby. It looks predictable — after all, Dubai is exactly the place where many people dream of cruising down Sheikh Zayed Road in a hypercar, showing off status and wealth.

SIA SMARTLYNX AIRLINES: FULL LIST OF CREDITORS

BLACKLIST.AERO is publishing a full list of creditors of SIA SmartLynx Airlines (Latvia). We got it from several sources at once. This list was sent to all creditors by the airline itself along with an official letter informing that SmartLynx started the creditor protection procedure.

THE DEBT OF SIA SMARLYNX AIRLINES EXCEEDS EUR 238 MILLION

The BLACKLIST.AERO Registry Administration has received a full register of creditors of SMARTLYNX AIRLINES (Latvia), which until recently was part of the AVIA SOLUTIONS GROUP holding. In this list, 781 companies are listed as creditors. The amount of debt is truly amazing: more than 238 million euros.

ELLINAIR CASE: SO WHO WAS RIGHT?!

Exactly two years ago, I wrote an article about how the new owner of the Greek airline ELLINAIR stole 6.8 million euros of European Union aid, which had been allocated to restore the airline's operations after the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition to the great resonance of this article in Greece itself, for the BLACKLIST.AERO team and for me personally, this resulted in another information attack on us with the same delusional accusations of "blackmail, extortion and slander by pro-Russian gangsters".

FLY DUBAI REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE DILMUROD BAKHTIYORKHONOV AS ITS REPRESENTATIVE

An email was sent to the BLACKLIST.AERO administration, in which the FLY DUBAI completely denies the fact that DILMURODKHON (DILMUROD) BAKHTIYORKHONOV is its representative. This email was received in response to the official request of the BLACKLIST.AERO administration sent to the airline in connection with the case against PANORAMA AIRWAYS.

CASE OF AIR CAPITAL AVIATION CORP: "MERRY WIDOW" AND ETHICAL ISSUES

The editors of BLACKLIST.AERO always strive to avoid real interference in personal life, even when it comes to persistent defaulters or inveterate scammers. We have to shove through large amounts of information about the defaulters in our cases, talk to various sources, and often collect the real picture of what happened bit by bit information that could cause a lot of trouble to all these people.

ABAKAN AIR HIRES LAWYERS AND HACKERS TO FIGHT BLACKLIST.AERO

Our public and paralegal actions have pinched the tail of the Russian airline ABAKAN AIR very hard. Judging by the efforts that this company began to make to counter the BLACKLIST.AERO, they began to "burn" there. Military contracts carried out by Abakan Air, which is under US sanctions, may be disrupted. Abakan management is furious.

NIGERIAN CAA: CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION

The case of the company BAZE RESEARCH AND DATA SERVICES from Nigeria began quite ordinary. Everything indicated that another crook wanted to “leave the restaurant without paying the bill.” Even the fact that this crook turned out to be a fairly well-known businessman and politician in Nigeria Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed did not play any role - our registry is full of such high-ranking defaulters or outright scammers. For some reason, they believe that their financial situation and high social status in their own countries should somehow faze us and make us shut up. But, as you know, all this “mumbo jumbo” does not bother us at all.

WHERE “NEXUS – PLEXUS” HIDES MILLIONS STOLEN FROM HIS CREDITORS

For almost a year now, the BLACKLIST.AERO administration has had information about a significant part of Abdullah Al-Sayed’s assets, which he acquired with the money stolen from NEXUS FLIGHT OPERATIONS creditors. However, the information we obtained was kept away from the public. Instead of making it public, we decided to pass on all the information we had to the trustee Jumana Majdi Qutub in Saudi Arabia, who is searching for NEXUS assets for subsequent compensation of losses to the creditors of this company.

THE AVIATION COMMUNITY HAS VOICED ITS OPINION. THANK YOU FOR YOUR VOTES!

This was not a voting with any outcome we knew we wanted. Both options have their advantages and challenges for us. But it was important for us to understand the real sentiments among active participants of the aviation market. Because for us these are the people who are called policy makers.

DO REFORMED DEFAULTERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE COMPLETELY OBLIVIONED? PLEASE VOTE!

Dear BLACKLIST.AERO followers! It is extremely important for us to hear your opinion on one of the most important issues of our site. As you well know, we never delete articles from our site. For all three years, no one has managed to intimidate or bribe us. I told them every time - even if you bang your head against the brick wall, hire lawyers, bandits, killers, anyone, throw mud at us (and at me personally) in the form of various, the most idiotic fakes - it will not help! It also never came to discussing specific amounts for removing an article, because such proposals were nipped in the bud.

CORRUPTION AND SHAME: KENYA ASSOCIATION OF AIR OPERATORS AND CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY PROTECT NOTORIOUS CROOKS

Stories about how scammers, having earned money by deceiving counterparties, invest part of the loot in raising their status are not uncommon. The calculation is quite simple: firstly, they need to whitewash their reputation. Secondly, the new status allows them to penetrate the circle of fatter wallets, which means they can rob at a new, higher level. So such investments are usually justified and there is nothing surprising here.

FLY DUBAI COVERS A SCAMMER FROM PANORAMA AIRWAYS?

The problems of Panorama Airways (Uzbekistan) began almost from the very beginning. In fact, it was a financial pyramid - tickets were sold at a loss, the company existed at the expense of loans from suppliers of fuel, ground handling and catering services. This could not work for so long and one fine day the pyramid collapsed in the most catastrophic way - the airline was unable to take back passengers who flew in January 2024 for Umrah (minor Hajj) to Saudi Arabia.

ELI LANCE – ELIJAH NERI - HAKAN BOZAN IS LAUGHING AT LAS VEGAS POLICE

What is the fate of one of the heroes of the articles in BLACKLIST.AERO, who pocketed the money for aircraft parts and disappeared. I will tell you about this in the new “report from Las Vegas” - a city in which you can become a millionaire almost instantly, and spend your millions in a matter of hours. A city in which the police, apparently, are already so tired of all sorts of crooks and adventurers that they are ready to react to anything only if they are brought a swindler, already handcuffed and with twenty boxes of evidence for the district attorney.

THE UN SECURITY COUNCIL CONFIRMED BLACKLIST.AERO FACTS ABOUT HARMONY JETS ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES

I am always very calm when someone expresses disbelief in the facts presented by me in my articles on BLACKLIST.AERO. Why?

IT'S MAGIC! BLACKLIST.AERO BROUGHT KARIM STAMBOULI BACK TO EXPRESS AIR CARGO!

Just yesterday Karim Stambouli, right after publishing an article about the critical situation at Express Air Cargo, wrote to me (after three months of ignoring my attempts to contact him) in WhatsApp: ‘I'm not Express Air Cargo any more’. And started threatening me. First with the court, then with the police. When I told Karim that I would be ready to answer for EVERY WORD written in my article and he could go complain anywhere and to anyone Karim decided to resort to the last ‘argument’: he started to threaten me with... Halis Din 😂 😂 😂

EXPRESS AIR CARGO IS DROWNING, MANAGEMENT HAS RAN AWAY AND “LOOKING FOR NEW CHALLENGES”

AIRACER CASE: CANCELLATION FEE MUST BE PAID

Problem of non-payment the cancellation fee by charter brokers in the event of a flight being cancelled due to a passenger’s reason has become one of the most discussed issues among operators in recent years. For operators, this is not only lost profits due to the aircraft’s forced downtime, but also often technical and even legal problems when carrying out a subsequent flight. For example, in a number of countries, fuel poured into an aircraft and cleared through customs for an international flight may become the cause for claims from customs authorities in the event of a subsequent domestic flight instead of an international one.

Three months ago, I told a story about how fraudsters created a fake BLACKLIST.AERO page on X (former Twitter) with the goal of publishing any nonsense on it just to discredit our reputation. I laughed at this “innocent” idea and said that we need to prepare for much bigger provocations, using deepfake technology. And I was right!

HEY HARMONY JETS, DO I HAVE TO COME TO MALTA AGAIN? SET THE DATE!

Yesterday, HARMONY JETS put out an official letter to their counterparties, in which they tried to at least somehow fend off my article published two weeks ago. As you remember, I flew to Malta in order to clarify the facts that shed light on why HARMONY JETS flights can be cancelled at any time. And therefore, the company developed a special scheme that allows them not give back the money paid for the flight to clients.

MERKUR – THE NEW THREE CASES DEFAULTER. IT’S TIME FOR HALIS DIN TO GO

There is a certain wicked irony in the fact that a company that signed the Three Cases Declaration two years ago and committed itself to fight systemic defaulters has itself become a Three Cases Defaulter. But if the signing of this Declaration was originally an attempt to avoid the pressure of the BLACKLIST.AERO administration on its own debts, then there is nothing strange about it. As I said before participation in the Three Cases Declaration is not an indulgence from non-payments.

“ROGUE KNIGHTS” FROM HARMONY JETS IN MALTA ARE ALLOWED TO DO ANYTHING???

In order to understand why companies like HARMONY JETS can do what they do with impunity, I had to fly to Malta. So to speak, “to the stomping ground” of these crooks. Only on the spot was it possible to find out who was covering them - by their active actions or deliberate non-interference. And at the same time to understand why HARMONY JETS flights are cancelled, and their aircraft remain on the ramp.

HEY RINAD, HAVE YOU DECIDED TO DEBATE PUBLICLY?! SO COME ON!

PRIVATE JET CHARTER IS A FRAUDULENT COMPANY: FACTS 

As it often happens after our first publications about a defaulter, more and more details, new cases, new evidence begin to appear. This is what happened with the PRIVATE JET CHARTER LIMITED (UK) case, the article about which caused a real stir. The information received and new cases leave no doubt to the BLACKLIST.AERO editorial team: the non-payments of this company are not accidents, but episodes of an openly fraudulent scheme. These are not tricks, not traps - this is a criminal offense in its purest form.

And asked his client to pay again directly to the operator, otherwise the flight would not operate.

MAKERS OF SOAP BUBBLES ARE ALWAYS SIMILAR. RINAD EL-RABAA, JONATHAN WOLPE. CONTINUATION... 

In order to create a soap bubble, under which gullible investors will be willing to invest their money, it is important to constantly create the appearance of success and profitability. Actually, it is called a soap bubble precisely because it is a form without real content. What is “seems” but not “is” in reality.

WARNING: DEFAULTER JETLUX LTD (UK) ATTEMPTS TO RETURN TO THE AVIATION MARKET AS A CHARTER BROKER

To the attention of European operators and charter brokers: the UK registered company JETLUX LTD, which in the recent past was just a firm - a pad for the Ukrainian flight support company SKY HANDLING, has launched the site https://jetlux.com/. The site is a usual interface for ordering a charter flight. Nothing unusual, an ordinary business card site. Except for a couple of things...

HARMONY JETS CASE: ATTENTION! BE CAREFUL WITH THEIR CHARTER AGREEMENT!

I have long heard from various sources the statements like: “The HARMONY JETS operator has the game rigged. They are fraudsters. Pay attention to them!” However, we at BLACKLIST.AERO take seriously only two types of information: firstly, cases from our claimants officially registered in the Registry. Because, according to the Claimant agreement they sign, they bear full legal responsibility for the truthfulness of all the information contained in the case. The second type of information is that which is personally received by the Registry administration and editors during subsequent proceedings.

GEORGIAN AIRLINES: BUSINESS WITH “QURDULI MENTALITETI”

From which, by the way, the company was able to fully recover.

AERO BLEU AIRWAYS: THE LAW IS NOT WRITTEN FOR CONGRESSMEN!  

In November 2023, we wrote about AERO BLEU AIRWAYS and its actual owner, Philippine Congressman Dan (Danilo) Fernandez. Let me remind you - this company has repeatedly distinguished itself by wet leasing cargo aircraft for charter programs. However, each time, the lack of professionalism of management in planning flights and basic ignorance of the laws operating in the cargo transportation market led to the fact that programs were disrupted, aircraft were idle, and AERO BLEU AIRWAYS simply refused to pay both leasing payments and the bills for previously provided handling and refueling services.

ABOUT “GOOD” AND “BAD” COMPANIES IN BLACKLIST.AERO

BLACKLIST.AERO CELEBRATES FIRST TWO YEARS: WHAT WE HAVE ACHIEVED

This project was carried like a child - exactly 9 months. When I was already planning to start it, fears arose: “What if war breaks out?” At the end of January - beginning of February, the presence of more than 200 thousand Russian troopers near the borders of Ukraine had indicated that the war was absolutely real. Although only those who planned this war could believe that a big war in Europe is even possible in the 21st century. The subsequent atrocities of Russian soldiers in Bucha, Irpin, Mariupol and hundreds of other large and small cities in Ukraine showed that no achievements of mankind, no technological progress and no check and balance systems will save if mentally sick tyrants are in power.

WE ARE CHANGING THE DEFINITION OF DEFAULTER

“NEXUS - PLEXUS”, WYVERN …AND DUBAI POLICE 

I always knew that fraudsters do not know the difference between cunning and meanness. They do not get it due to a complete lack of empathy. This is what is called a “medical fact”. Their lack of empathy helps them commit fraudulent acts without feeling any guilty conscience. “Conscience” is an absolutely unnecessary and irrational concept for them.

Not long ago, the passenger airline ELLINAIR S.A. (Greece) has announced the upcoming resumption of flights. However, the facts obtained by the editors of the BLACKLIST.AERO Register prove that all the public activity of recent weeks and news about the upcoming restart are needed to the new owners only in order to receive a new tranche of aid from the European Commission. And this tranche will be stolen in the same way as the first. ELLINAIR is not going to fly anywhere.

SUCH A SMALL BUT SUCH AN ESSENTIAL REFUND

The defaulter OMNI PRIVATE JETS ignored all attempts to resolve the issue of non-payment of the handling bill for almost a year. The company didn’t make any complaints about the bill. Didn’t try to explain why it did not pay it. They simply ignored all the requests for payment. As long as BLACKLIST. AERO Operations Team didn’t "pin down" this operator at one airport, which was served by only one handling company. We are grateful to the representatives of this company for the fact that they understood the information provided by us and refused to service the OMNI’s aircraft. That's when representatives of OMNI PRIVATE JETS immediately contacted their creditor and promised to close the debt! Which they did as a result. I just have a question for OMNI: your cheating and arrogance were worth it???
