Arik A330

Hi,

Anyone out there know what happened regarding the A330 and the LHR base?

Have seen a picture of the aircraft but was wondering when it would enter service at LHR.

It's already (or suppose to) operating on LOS-JNB daily...so keeping it occupied, won't be doing LHR soon, unless more is on the way soon.

I know that they employed Pilots and Cabin Crew for a London A330 base. Also understand that some of the newly employed Pilots subsequently left after a short while!

Does that mean it's costing the company a fortune in positioning and night stopping the remaining crew in LOS?

Is all as it should be with Arik?
