Who owns it the airline or the tour operator??
It is in the basic colour scheme of blue and white at the moment for its shakedown period. Any problems it has can be ironed out now and crew can get used to the aircraft. We have a contract with FlyFirstClass and will be operating Bermuda and North Carolina routes on this aircraft. The Aircraft will then be reconfigured to hold only 96 passengers and will be painted with FlyFirstClass livery, which also has blue and white base colours. Its kinda like Air Atlanta, who have one of there 747's in TravelCity Direct colours. Its Flyjet's aircraft but once the FlyFirstClass contract begins, the aircraft will only be used for the FlyFirstClass contract.
I was on the aircraft the other day to do my touch drills and was half expecting it to be knackered considering the age of the aircraft, but i have to say it is looking lovely. I can't wait to work on it.
There are definately exciting times ahead for Flyjet.
