Rolling Stone, don’t agree with you, both you and Chutney need to understand that a one off operation once or twice a year can be fun. To maintain a high quality service day in day out needs a dedicated and highly motivated and trained team. Using someone else’s AOC and staff will never give you that.
Quoting Monarch and Air 2000 as good examples could not be further from the truth, don’t get me wrong they are two very good airlines at economy level. If they were so good at providing a high-class service then why don’t they do it on a day-to-day basis? I have been on both flights that you are talking about, they were fun and efficient but most certainly not business first.
The 757 does not work, fact!
Who in their right mind would use old B757-200s for a high class business operation, business men don’t come back when the AC keep going tech. 2nd best does not do in the real world….only the best will do! That’s not just the aircraft that’s the staff as well.
