Thumbs up Flyjet

As far as I am aware the iminent 767-200 is due upon Flyjet very soon! Flyjet will be commencing operations out of Newcastle come May 1st 2006, incorpotating routes to the Canary Islands, Greek islands, Cyrpus and Egypt. The recruitment process is already under way for Cabin Crew for both Newcastle and LGW bases! Slowly but surely Flyjet are expanding, and looks like and lets hope some good times ahead for all three bases and staff!
They've had their fare share of turbulent times but it can't all be plain sailing!

Lets hope along with the current staff and the new recruits they can help build the reputation of Flyjet!

Good Luck Flyjet I say!

Does anyone from FJE know if they intend NCL to be a permanent base or just a seasonal, May to Oct one? It would be good to have another based charter carrier at NCL all year round!

Kenny Lingus you say that FJE are planning an all-year round base, what flights are they planning to operate during the winter season?

During this coming summer season, the FJE a/c has been chartered onbehalf of XLA, flying a great deal of the MyTravel Holidays programme. During the winter MYT only operate a small programme ex NCL which is operated using their own a/c as is most of the charter flights from NCL in the winter season. So what do they plan on doing with the a/c? And who is to say that XLA will contract them again next summer as I believe they are planning to reinstate their original plans of having NCL with 3 XLA a/c.

I wish FJE all the luck at NCL, its good to see a company providing more jobs, I just hope they've thought it through if it is going to be a permanent base.

Is there any existing flyjet staff relocating to the new base at NCL? Surely they will need experienced crew?

It will be interesting to see what infrastructure has been setup to support the new NCL base.

I wish all the new people all the best, there are some very very good people who work at FJE.
