The management received an email about the takeover and Air Atlanta will own most of Excel. We also know that Air Atlanta and XL are moving into the same offices next door to Mitre Court. I am sure it won't be long before we are one company.

You mean you crews get free sani's as well as all that leave, restricted working hours and beer tokens for your jollies down route.

And all I hear on this site is moaning about how tuff life is.

Chicken or Beef sir.......... peanuts and monkies springs to mind.

( Will now duck why proverbial hits the fan ?? )

Sooooo....

747-300s for TCD
747-200s for the bits left over
767-300s for the XLA long haul programme
A310s to replace the 767-200s
757-200s currently in fleet
737-800s currently in fleet
737-400s from Islandsflug merged into Atlanta
737-300s from Islandsflug merged into Atlanta

Eight types/sub-types in a 30 aircraft fleet?

It makes Varig's fleet plan look positively cohesive.

If we really are getting A310s next season, does anyone know where they would be coming from?

What are the range capacity differences?

There will be No replacement of the Excel 767's by A310's. The sole Passenger A310 that Islandflug have purchased will be used by Corsair throught this winter period on extra work the french company have picked up.
For Summer 05 the the A310 will move over to Dublin & fly on behalf Aviajet-on which routes are un-known yet. Once it has completed the summer 05 program it shall return to France to work for Corsair again, for winter 05/06.
