Re: Mytravel plans for Summer 2006
Hi,
MyTravel Group PLC posting fantastic financial results in December. If it had not been for higher fuel costs, which effectively put MyTravel a year behind turnaround, the company would have been back in profit in all 3 divisions last year. MyTravel now however, anticipate an overall group profit for 2006.
During the low yield Winter Season, as with most other Tour Operators, MyTravel lease aircraft to Hajj airlines and to Canadian operators where demand is much higher at this time of year.
For Summer 2006, the fleet should be (please correct me if I am wrong):
4 x A330-200s
1 x A330-300
2 x B767-300s
1 x B757-200 (Rumour of a 2nd?)
3 x A321-200s
14 x A320s
New routes to Brazil, Djerba, Holguin, Cayo Coco, Trivandrum and Ovda are due to start this year or commenced this Winter.
Premier Gold Service has been enhanced in several ways and there are to be new economy cabins on the A330-200s for Winter 2006/2007 with 31" legroom as standard (the same as BA).
New On-Time Performance results for Summer 2005 released today from The CAA show MyTravel as the most On-Time Charter Airline with over 77% of flights departing and arriving on time.
Hope this helps!
