Ok let's assume for a nanosecond that this isn't a school project (websites cost around £3 a year to register, easily within reach of a school kid).

Let's talk economics for all you guys who reckon this is going to offer a product for a fraction of a BA club fare.

They say they will configure the aircraft in 80 seats.

Let's say they can lease a/c for $300,000 a month.

Let's also say they operate 4 sectors a day.

The average breakeven for a 2.5 hour flight on that basis assuming an 80% load factor would be in the region of £360 return fare before you factored in head office and advertising costs.

Still interested?
