RIP OV HAJ-TLL

I was disappointed to read today that Estonian Airlines is cancelling its Hannover-Tallinn service, which was supposed to start this past spring. It's not clear to me whether they ever flew it--although I did see it on the arrivals/departures board on the day the service was supposed to start.

It sounds like the situation at Estonian Airlines is pretty bad: "Due to the need to adjust operations in accordance to the reduced flight capacity, Estonian Air will decrease its staff by 146 people. ... Currently 318 people are working in the company. ... The structure of the company will be based on operating 5 aircraft and serving 9-10 core destinations."

I had been looking forward to a visit to (the republic of) Georgia via Tallinn.

Whoa, whoa, Georgia via Talinn? I am filled with envy.

Of several summer options I'm considering, that deal where you go teach English in Georgia for a few months & you don't make much money but they pay for your flights etc. is a strong contender. (My main concern, since they set folks up with "host families", is finding a smoke-free situation where my veganism could be accomodated.) The buildings in Tbilisi look _amazing_!
