YOU SHOULD STAND BY YOUR WORDS: MEBAA-2025 RESULTS FROM BLACKLIST.AERO 

“What are you doing?! We all spent tens of thousands of dollars to attract attention to our companies at the exhibition, and you just by making one post on LinkedIn turn all the attention to yourself and these crooks whom you challenged to a battle! Now everyone is whispering only about it! Everyone has forgotten about the exhibition!”

THE DEEPFAKE ERA HAS COME FOR BLACKLIST.AERO! WE TELL YOU WHO, HOW AND WHY

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.

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.

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.

Our position is very simple: “Be as mad as you wish, even call us satraps! But your debts will have to be repaid!”

GEORGIAN AIRLINES: BUSINESS WITH “QURDULI MENTALITETI” 

This story fully reflects the state of affairs and methods of doing business in modern Georgia. The country, which in words strives to join the European Union, in reality cultivates the linear gangster practices that were common in the countries of the former Soviet Union in the 90s of the past century.

MYWAY OPERATES “UNTIL COURT”  

Many believe that the problems of the Georgian airline MYWAY began with the attack on Khartoum airport (Sudan) in April 2023. Among the other 20 aircraft that burned down at that time was an aircraft that belonged to MYWAY. However, in fact, the company’s non-payments began long before this terrible incident. 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 

Occasionally, representatives of defaulting companies ask us a question like: “How can you help a company like...” and then the name of the company that filed a case against them. “Ask others, your claimants have a very bad reputation! But we have a good reputation and don’t want the case in BLACKLIST.AERO to cast a shadow over it!”

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

As you know in the work of the BLACKLIST.AERO Register we were guided by a clear definition of what a "Defaulter" is. So, according to our previous rules, Defaulter: a company that has not paid an invoice after more than 90 days past the overdue date.

“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.

INVESTIGATION AGAINST ELLINAIR: NEW OWNERS ARE SUCCESSFULLY STEALING EU AID 

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???
