It seems things are on the up.
JF will be back after two years from working in the Middle East, another very experienced chap is Chief Pilot ex BA apparently.
Also things in Ops seem to be better since the two ladies from hell left.
I hope FJE goes from strength to strength.
Cheers

That will depend I presume on another a/c coming into the fleet and what kind of programme they have for the winter?
Granted Flyjet seem to be ticking along quite nicely from an outside view, with NCL and MAN having busy programmes and LGW operating a few flights, in anticipation of the 767 arrival.
Every airline has to start off somewhere, steady expansion and cautious moves.

767 Bermuda info to be annouced internally first.
757 copenhagon & Billund - Thailand, India etc info to be annouced ( poss up to 9 sets of crews at a time)
757 newcastle - Egypt & Canaries 6 flights per week
Lots of new things happening this year, Staffs to be told first then be annouced on here.
25 hour delay to the Sharm dont think out aircraft like doing this flight.
Due to technical problems after the Night Corfu.
Everything has run on time or eairy this week so no problems.
All airlines have there fair share of delays but to FJE having fewer aircraft it is more noticable. doesnt mean its a bad company though.
Lukeylad just to let you know FJE do have more than 2 Aircraft and fantastic contracts.
The comapny is to expand rapidy over the next year. Cant let any info out yet but watch this space.

Thats great news, I know the crews and flightdeck will cope with the rapaid expansion but will the infrastructure and management cope too?
Your ground services manager is joining GoldAir and he was very good at keeping the wheels oiled in the north terminal.

And the 767...
Seems to be at Lasham, parked up out the back of the hangar with no work ongoing, no "new seats" on site to be fitted to it and no-one has any idea what is happening to it. Far from it having been flown to Lasham to be reconfigured, it looks as though it's been flown there because parking is cheaper than at Manchester.

Smoke and mirrors albert....parking is cheaper at Lasham and eventually the seats will be fitted there....when the a/c is free to fly I believe it will do some local stuff before being kitted out for FFC.....FFC seats are in the country and ready to go!!

Have FJE managed to source a 3rd 757 a/c from anywhere in order to meet expanison plans? They were going to get one early this year but never managed and now with 3 bases and quite alot of work, it seems necessary to acquire further a/c. Where will they come from, as 757 a/c are not in abundance these days.

One Of The Current Boeing 757-200 G-fjea Or G-fjeb Will Return Its Service In Newcastle From 01-september-2006.
Ea Or Eb Will Commence Service On The Longhaul Routes.
Ec Will Commence Its Serivice On The Bda,ilm Route.
Ec Is Currently Having Problems Obtaining A License Required From The Caa Due To Flyjet Changing Hands From Its Cypriot Partners At The End Of 2005.
Once This Paper Work Is Obtained Ec Will Enter Service.
This Problem Could Not Have Been Solved Without Getting Ec First.
Therefore It Has To Remain On The Ground Until The Matter Is Resolved.
A 3rd B757 Is Planned To Enter Serive Spring 2007.
Nothing Is Official Yet As Plans Are Currently Changing Daily.
New Offices Have Been Found To House Expanding Flyjet And The Future Is Looking Bright.
