Hungarian airlines Malev stopped all its services at 6am on Friday.
The company board decided to interrupt operations of the arline carrier in order to minimise damage, a statement said. Under the decision, all services were stopped and after 66 years of continuous operation, Malev will not fly from 6am on February 3, the statement added.
Managing director Lorant Limburger said that as a result of recent reports about the company, subcontractors lost confidence and demanded payment for their services in advance. This has accelerated spending to an extent that the company's situation became insupportable.
Passengers are informed about alternative travel arrangements and compensation options by customer services.
Malev said in the statement that it would assist passengers reach their destination by transferring them to other airlines or by offering them alternative arrangements.
