SAM1993 - nope!

Aidoair -
LCA aircraft doesnt come anywhere near the UK.
Helping XL Germany - nope!
Fleet bases - nice try, keep guessing!
Erm... if you know can't you tell us or is it a big secret?

Can't be anything majorly exciting, maybe a long haul base, army charters hmm guess ill just keep guessing haha!

summer 10 aircraft basing something like this?

9x B737-800 (4x LGW, 1x MAN, 1x ARN, 1x WAW, 1x POZ, 1x LCA)
3x B737-300 (1x MAN, 1x BRS, 1x HER)
2x A320-200 (1x ATH, 1x HER)
1x MD-83 (ARN)

738 numbers might be wrong - for example all ARN flying could actually be on MD? I assume they'll start the summer with 5 738s (1 new?) and 2 SW 738s from Canada with an additional aircraft added in June to cover the split operation in GLA June/July and then LGW for the rest of the season

Globetrotter 79 - There will only be 5 738's this Summer, I am amazed at the speculation of the fleet size/bases and why it seems so important to some.

Mizake - I don't see the Polish Charterers being named on a public forum.

Facts R Us - firstly sorry for error in my guesstimates...but then you did invite us to "keep guessing" and then appear to get upset when we do?!

Ref importance "to some" of how many aircraft in Viking fleet - I'd have thought that was pretty obvious....given current state of market in Europe, a growing airline means more potential jobs for the large (and, unfortunately, increasing) number of us unemployed crew

globetrotter,

No need to keep guessing, the summer fleet was correctly listed in post 134 by Oliversarmy.

These flights from MAN to ATH mainly cater for the big expat community of Kurdish people from Northern Iraq, living in UK. Viking Hellas provides connections to Erbil and Sulaymaniah, as well as to the capital town Baghdad.

Ptp tickets to Athens are also available.

Flights from WAW and other Polish airports are sold by local charter holiday firms, flying holidaymakers to Spain/Canary Islands, Greece and so on, within EU. These have been also operated last year by the Viking Airlines of Sweden.

ABESI- currently its the MD83 but 2 A320's will join soon

Also does anyone think Viking will operate long haul flights in the near future from their major bases I.e. LGW and MAN. If they did i'd imagine they would go for second hand 767's or possibly A332's.
