Because of this security tax, I have been forced to lower my fares to compete with a competitor who just happens to fly out of airports not on the designated list. I also had to cancel all my weekend flights indefinitely as well as cancel my mid-afternoon flight until further notice. Sadly, in addition I have had to contact an aircraft broker to place my backup aircraft for sale. 2, record 1, English, - back%2Dup%20aircraft

À cause de la taxe de sécurité, j'ai dû réduire mes tarifs pour faire concurrence à un compétiteur qui utilise des aéroports non désignés. J'ai également dû annuler indéfiniment tous mes vols de fin de semaine ainsi que mon vol du milieu de l'après-midi jusqu'à nouvel ordre. Malheureusement, j'ai dû également communiquer avec un courtier en aéronefs pour mettre mon aéronef de réserve en vente. 2, record 1, French, - avion%20de%20r%C3%A9serve
