Azzurra Manchester Base?

[Obi Wan Kirk]

I keep seeing an Azzurra B737NG working from MAN plus afriend of mine was offered a job with them based in MAN. Does anyone know what the deal is & how what kind of flying they're doing from the UK?

Charter flying linked with the people who are looking after TransJet's UK operations this Summer.

There is no link between Azzurra Air and Transjet.

Xenia,

Have to correct you there, I'm afraid. The same agent (Meridian Aviation) is in charge of selling both the Transjet and Azzurra aircraft to tour operators in the UK. Even though there may be no operational links, there are commercial ties between the two - in the UK, at least.

Flightrider,
Yes, I know and agree about Meridian, however no operational links (anywhere) between the two.

So, do they fly british pax with italian FTL?

Where do the pilots flying the Azzurra based B737 NG come from?
