Eirjet

Rumour has it that Eirjet is being investigated by the IAA due to crewing regulations.

They are constantly delayed over the weekends, and they are on a cash for fuel agreement.

Looks like the future ain't too bright for Eirjet!

[QUOTE=Unionjet28]
Yes, there have been delays. But i think it's fair to say Eirjet are not the only airline in DUB that had its share of delays last weekend. Thats not trying to Justify it, no-one likes being stuck in the overcrowded mess that is DUB, but it is being addressed. [QUOTE]

UnionJet you should know that eirJet has a fine history of delays which date back to last summer, I should I spent 12 hours in Cork airport, and had anothr flight cancelled outright. Had to find my own way home, and EIR left it up to first choice reps to sort their sorry mess, both in AGP and ORK. It was an utter disgrace.and one which continues this summer.

FCA787...people in glass houses should not throw stones, were it not for First Choice this shower would have no contracts for the summer months.

Cork

Last Sunday week, Eirjet overflew Cork on an AGP/ORK/SNN flight after along delay. Similar delay last Sunday though this time they landed at Cork.
Their weekend operation at Cork/SNN is very tight.

Yes EI-DOZ has been flying for the past week. I think it's first revenue service for Eirjet was a charter from Cork. It arrived from Montreal into Shannon last Friday July 21 after a 5hr 20min Atlantic crossing. It is an all white livery at present.

rgds,

I had noticed other airline's flying for EIR a lot? Have they scheduled too many flights for the summer, or was their a delay with a new aircraft arriving? Either way, with all those delays, I'm glad I didnt take a job with them!

The T/A permission thing was all about a ACMI contract with Air Jamaica when DKG went on wet lease for last winter.

The new EI-DOZ was noted outside Lufthansa painting at Shannon today. (It arrived all white a few weeks ago)

It is in fact Mandala Airlines of Indonesia.

EIDOZ is going to Indonesia on a AMI (Aircraft,Maintenace,Insurance) Lease for a number of years. To be followed by another Eirjet A/C.

What are Eirjet going doing for their own flights?!

Note that the regulator shows Eirjets AOC expiring on 27th October, and they only have a temperary license at present

I guess that they will use their other 2 aircraft to operate the remainder of the summer season. Then it is the quiet time in the Irish charter market, so I guess they will look doing some other ACMI business. Maybe Ryanair again or Easyjet, they have been operating for EZY recently.
Looks like good news with the 2 aircraft going to Indonesia, rather than sitting around Europe when it is quiet. Don't other charter airlines send aircraft to the far eastand north america for the winter?
Their AOC is valid to 23 Dec, and the licence that you refer to is the one issued by the civil aviation regulator
My 2 cents

Understand?

Chidken Sangwich. You understand they have ceased trading? Perhaps you could let us all know where you got the information to base this understanding on. Statements like that are incredibly damaging and if based on a rumour and not solid fact, are downright rude and inconsiderate!
