The Demise of Maxjet - A TV programme

For those of you who can receive BBC World, next weeks edition of Fast Track will feature a story on the demise of Maxjet and what it will mean to other business class only airlines. It will be first broadcast on 20 Jan but is repeated practically daily for the following week. The schedule for all countries can be viewed here.

There are still a few showings of this weeks edition to come and that featured the use of mobile phones on board aircraft. So far I've managed to turn on just as the programme finished. Note to self... check the schedule next time!

Believe that representitives of Maxjet have visited Stansted, with a view to starting operations again.
Will bring a fair amount of work to the airport if true.

A judge in the US has allowed an auction of the company's assets to take place. If they re-start, it won't be the same airline...

[Mr Flaps]

Lets hope if they re start they have better planes. And not old tin cans

[Hunter58]

That would make them to have to wait until 2013...

Unless of course Boeing and Airbus put another record year on the table...

Also, I don't really see another aircraft around allowing for the some 100 pax to be transported in relative comfort other than the 767-200ER. Old tin cans, yes, most likely, but the ony ones available to dothe job. I guess they would be better off looking for some other field of action.

Maxjet Again

Heard today that Maxjet are currently operating from Houston to West Africa, transporting oil workers around. Also that they intend trying the Stansted/states route again in the summer. Thankfully they are not out of buisness if this is true.

[StoneyBridge Radar]

Considering they held a "fire sale" auction on Feb. 20th, I find this rumour baseless.

Maxjet staff

So what happened to Carroline and the rest of the UK base staff?

Is it true Maxjet or the people behind Maxjet are to start a
low cost Airline (as first planned) STN-JFK and LAS.
