The flying at Air Scandic is very quiet for the immediate future, however the programme for next summer is in place and looks good and solid.
Manchester and Newcastle will again be the focus of the airline, with the 2 A300's at MAN. In addition, 1 leased 757 at MAN and one at Newcastle, flying full charter programmes for Libra/Kosmar/Priceright.
Birmingham gets a W flight (MAN - FAO - BHX / BHX - FAO - MAN) planned to be ops on the 757, from Summer 2002.
Yes, the crews are not flying much at all, and some are part time for the winter. In the present situation though, Scandic is coping well as it is really reverted to being an ad-hoc / subcharter airline between November and April.
One way this company could come to problems, if ever, is down to its structure.... The loss of one of the limited companies operating together under the Air Scandic trademark for example.
Would be interested to hear any other feedback Knold if you could post it or email please.
cheers,
