I personally don't think anyone from Silverjet would be 'behind' this... After all we at the moment are defending ourselves from such slanderous attacks...
EOS, although advertised as a business class service, are a first class service at first class prices... If you do a little research, you will see EOS cost 'slightly' more to fly than Silverjet.
I appreciate they are going to compete on our routes, however Silverjet has a few distinct differences, take for example EOS's check in procedure... You have to be airside before you get to their lounge in Stansted, once you have made your way through check in and security with the likes of Ryanair, XL and other major low cost carriers...
If there is any truth to such rumours, I wish all at EOS the best of luck and offer my moral support. Maxjet staff were notified by email on Chrsitmas Eve that they no longer had a job... I would hate for any of my colleagues, no matter which airline they work for to have to experience such terrible circumstances...
Long may EOS fly... They are the foremost US single class carrier, and Silverjet is the FIRST & ONLY British all business class airline...
Good luck Guys!
