The worrying fact is that even though Silverjet are now behind flyjet with lots of capital, no money has been invested in FJE, especially the a/c. Indeed with them being returned in October, I suspect no money will be spent on them. It has been said over and over again that with Silverjet as the scheduled exec airline, flyjet has great great potential to be a top niche charter carrier (possibly along the lines of Titan etc) but the interest and enthusiasm does not seem to be there for the new big bosses. Charters will not want to hire an airline with an appaulling punctuality and technical dispatch record and where complaints from pax pile up.
What are the management going to do if they don't get a replacement for EA and EB. Contracts have been signed with the Danish company and with Excel Aviation. Surely they wont be too pleased with being dropped in it?!
NCL - Busy programme, enthusiastic pax reactions - potential.
MAN - Busy programme, enthusiastic pax reactions - potential.
LGW - The hub of UK charter ops - potential.
