[edit] Proposed move

Move complete.

[edit] Rationale

EgyptAir is now using the CamelCase naming as opposed to the earlier Egyptair. The change can be seen on their website. EdwinHJ | Talk

[edit] Horribly Inaccurate Facts

The Maltese Egypt air incident is horribly inaccurate, the hi-jackers did not storm the plane but shot anyone who tried to escape the plane and used a powerful explosive on the plane thus killing the passengers instead of aprehanding the terrorists, they killed more passangers that the terrorists. Please correct the inaccurate fact, I live in the country myself don’t tell me you have a good source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.85.104.106 (talk) 21:48, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Why no mention of EgyptAir's famous incident?

I am referring to the air crash a few years ago. —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 21:44, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

hey which crash? the one of tunisia?

[edit] Airline Fleetsize

EgyptAir is not second largest anymore. Both Egyptair and South African Airways have the fleetsize as of current (49 planes both). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.100.218.127 (talk) 04:50, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WARNING! Violation of WP:OR

This article is in violation of WP:OR. This article may have some of its information deleted without further notice. WP:OR is a wikipedian policy which works in conjuctions with WP:V. All Encyclopedic content must be verifiable (as stated just above every edit summary). The table within this article makes reference IATA code of EgyptAir being "MS". However it does not provide sufficience reference to investigate this finding. There is a link to IATA however, further investigation into this self referencing wikipedia link does not provide any information or a corelation with the term MS. As per wikipedian policy, aggreed upon by general concensus, this information must be removed. I have previously given this article a warning by adding {{fact}}, however this was removed. Consider this your final warning to provide reliable sources. --CyclePat 21:04, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

I have just been threathen with a block from user User talk:Dethme0w in regards to EgyptAir and feel I can no longer debate this issue. He has consider the fact that I added "Citation required" as disruptive. I have posted my concerns at the WP:ANI board and the WP:Reliable sources Noticeboard and this is my final post regarding this item. We have not found any reliable sources, we could not work together, and we disagreed upon the fundamental wikipedia rules elaborated within WP:OR and WP:V which states "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable." We are still left wondering where this information comes from and I believe the article is not properly sourced. Unfortunatelly, I feel as though I can no longer safely debate this issue from feer of being blocked. Finally, I would like to express my final concerns and warning to future readers in regards to the information within this article. Beware and be diligent to make sure your references are included! --CyclePat 22:22, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Uh, instead of boldly waltzing in, declaring your intentions, how about helping out and sourcing? :) spryde | talk 00:14, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
