Why would he need an office???
He has no staff, LW is trying for the funding, and am sure he has himself, and a couple of select others working behind the scenes!
And im sure u can do all that from home?
Cant you?

Very true, getting the funding involves going out of the office and into meetings. Was a bit weird though to see the offices in darkness after seeing it always a buzz of activity. As for LW, he's a very determined man. So we should encourage him....

She's finished singing, got a taxi home, ordered and consumed a take-away pizza and is now relaxing in a nice hot bath with a rather pleasant Cabernet Sauvignon........

I can tell you that although Now may not be utilising Halycon House, they are grouped somewhere, i gave them a call on thier 0845 number, and it sounded very busy, they said they would be taking bookings around about June/July for autumn flights!
So the fat lady you guys so oftenly talk about just lost her voice!

It's easy to sound busy down the phone, shuffle paper, make noises etc. How busy do you really think they are, and wherever they are? Don't be fooled. Taking bookings in June/July for Autumn flights - which year though ?
crash_1983 The fat lady is about to sing, mark my words.
teachin With all due respect, I wouldn't waste your time e-mailing anyone. The reply will be just more false promises. My advice to you is to move on and leave NOW alone.
Tarek Nor Are we talking about the same doughnuts

bacardi, the idea of emailing was just a thought. I've moved on, I am due to start with a "proper" airline, you know, one that exists. Just hope others from NOW have moved on too and landed other jobs to their liking.
NOW was a good idea and concept, but well, not to be, well right now anyways. Will keep an eye on them though, does no harm...

One of our ex colleagues made a couple of calls to NOW on their 0845 number, each time information was positive. But we've heard that before. They are planning an Autumn launch with ticket sales in June/July. So we will see. The main thing now is LW emailing out to us all to ask for a return. I would be hesitant after 4 false starts, for me I would have to see a NOW aircraft parked on stand at LTN in NOW colours and a web site actively selling tickets before I would even think of dropping what I have found and going back...
Anyone else want to test out what they say? NOW's number is 0845 4589737...Let us know...

NOW, DUO, EAAC, AV8, JETGREEN, EUJET (??).......
Profit warnings from easyJet, Ryanair
Mytravel
There is a clear message here. There is little money to be made in Aviation at the moment. The established carriers are in for a rocky ride unless they keep a very tight reign on costs.
New carriers face almost insurmountable odds, no matter what business plan, or commercial concept they have up their sleeve.
Back to reality........
