The fully based XL machine did not come about because of 2 main reasons;

1. XL did not physically have an a/c to base at HUY all week in addition to the part based unit, and so would have had to sub charter.
2. The fully based unit would have had a lot of down time, and so in the end, even though the new flights were selling well, including CFU and ZTH, the operation would not have been viable.

In other HUY related news, Servisair at HUY have won two prestidgeous awards;

Britannia Initiative Ready, Steady, Win!
81 per cent of their flights went out with a full passenger list ahead of schedule during a 26 week campaign.

KLM 5 crown status
KLM has awarded 5 crown status to the team at HUY. The award recognises the team's punctuality, baggage handling and friendly, efficient check-in and boarding.
