Palmair will not be using Hola airlines !

Viking is the carrier to be used from April onwards , they would have continued to use Jet 2 but there aircraft is required back into scheduled service but served a very valuable link this winter continuing the operation for Palmair after the collapse of European Aviation

Viking airlines has been sourced for the summer season with Palmair cabin crew operating the cabin service with all the usual little extra s that the customers have come to expect ie. legroom , quality of in flight meals , fresh flowers in the loos ! ( i know it sounds mad ) and general good customer service , which people of all ages are still prepared to pay for !

There is room in the market at Bournemouth for both low cost carriers and Palmair , people still want a package holiday and everything that comes with it and Palmair provide that

I agree that Ryanair and Thomson have seen Palmair off on quite a few routes but they will continue to hold there own even in tough times as they are a well managed operation and with the addition of this new aircraft it will open up some new routes hopefully like Cyprus and Egypt next winter

Good luck to them
