ANY TRUTH TO THE RUMOUR THAT THE CANADIAN SKYSERVICE A330-300 IS BACK TO AIRTOURS (MAN) FOR THE WINTER TO MOP UP EXCESS DEMAND. I AM TOLD THAT IT IS DUE ON 1 NOV??

A330-300 IS BACK TO AIRTOURS (MAN) FOR THE WINTER TO MOP UP EXCESS

Er What Excess???? There ai'nt gonna be more demand than supply this winter

[GOLIATH]

Winter seats already sold! 35% of AIH work always goes to Monarch, Air 2k et al.. Airtours pulled back the business at last minute to operate in house??

[WAIF-er]

C-FBUS is coming back to AIH cos the cabin crew training course is rostered for next week!

Firstly, AIH have an agreement to take the Skyservice aircraft for 3 or 4 years I think.

Secondly, the Airtours 330's are going for their big checks this winter and so will be out of action!

Skyservice & the DC-10's will share the work, along with the 767's.
