thats a shame,

they were a nice looking outfit when i had a nosey this october!

lets hope their pilots can move on to other jobs hey!

good luck guys
Merry christmas

thought they operated 757's?

its a shame, nice outfit IMHO.

Good. Next !

On the face of it, that would appear to be a particularly crass and moronic response to a large number of people being made redundant... Did one of the management run over your dog or what ?

Wish all the best to those employed by MaxJet.

What is the prognosis like for Eos and SilverJet, and will this make BA think twice about their latest venure?

Don't feed the trolls. . .

Sad news when any airline goes bust, at least it seems as they have done their best to try to do what they can with any existing, stranded pax.

Its all very well and good to look after stranded passenegers - but presumably Eos, hotels, etc are being paid in cash for this service. That is the same cash that might have been used to pay salaries, other creditors, etc. I was under the impression that the law requires all creditors to be treated equally?

Aircraft
 

Are any of MY' 767's stranded at STN?

Maxjet Bankrupt
 

My condolences to all staff involved. :sad:

I never like to see any airlines go under.

Good luck.

CY&B

It was always going to happen to either them or Eos, but I think their death could keep Eos alive.

One flew back to the states empty this morning, according to ITV news...

... that probably means it went to Dubai with a full load.

Very sad news, their aircraft always brightened my day at STN. Couldn't have come at a worse time either, it being Christmas and all.

Good luck to all those involved.

Two of them competing directly at STN for a niche market? And then AA opens up on the same route? Unfortunately, it was only a matter of time before one of the new boys folded.

One of my best friends is a senior check airman at maxjet...he called me this morning.He said that EOS might hire some maxjet staff including pilots.

I warned him against going to maxjet in the first place.

I will say this to all pilots out there...the best advice about airline flying comes from the book, "Fate is the Hunter".

EKG left American and went to fly for the new "steamship airline"...and then bye bye!~

My friend left a major airline for maxjet...things were bad then ...but the major is still flying and making money. (on the backs of their pilots, to be sure...fifty percent paycut).

Good luck to the maxjet staff. And to maxjet management...I hope Santa Puts a lump of coal into your stocking.

""Very sad news, their aircraft always brightened my day at STN. Couldn't have come at a worse time either, it being Christmas and all.

Agreed...never had enough cash to fly with them personally, but, living near STN...it was sometimes 'If I win the Lottery'...

Maybe the troll should Google " I told Wilbur Wright - and I told Orville Wright - this thing will never get off the ground"?

Hopefully, the way Maxjet seem to be treating the situation, will give positive input to the industry?

Matt.

Flew with them on a couple of occasions to JFK and IAD and found them to be very good indeed and well worth the money. (albeit the cheap end promo tickets)

Sad to see them go - they had some excellent staff on the ground and in the air on both sides of the Atlantic.

I hope they all get sorted out soon with employment and best of luck to them all.

Tec problems and the high standards that other airlines offered. Maxjet struggled and faught well. Good luck to everyone at the airline not a happy xmas then.

Whilst £1 buys around $2 and Jet A1 is priced in $'s, both the UK airlines crossing the Atlantic and their passengers will enjoy life.

Maxjet cited maintenance costs on their aging fleet as a crippling cost, those costs will also be applicable to Silverjet.

Very sad day for Maxjet. It is very sad when any airline goes bust!

RIP!

its a shame
 

its a shame to see any airline go under .but dit max jet shed a tear when they went to aviance to save a few quid and made people redundant at servisair?i doubt it .its a shame.
