BBC Radio 4 - The Bottom Line, Shake-up in the skies

What is really going on in Europe's airline industry? Evan Davis and guests discuss.

With the collapse of Monarch, Alitalia and Air Berlin and pilot problems for Ryanair, Evan Davis and guests ask what is really going on in Europe's airline industry.

What's behind the recent collapse of airlines such as Monarch, Alitalia and Air Berlin? Is it a case of supply outstripping demand or is there a larger crisis 
looming? Will Ryanair's cancellation of thousands of flights do the company permanent damage? 

What's really happening to Europe's airline industry? 
Evan Davis and guests discuss.
