Starship: Re. Nordic Airlink "doing a good job out of Bristol." Hmmmm!!!!! Admittedly they are better than Transjet, but only slightly. Nordic seem to specialise in crew shortage-induced delays, which have resulted in the 1400 EFL departure going out at 0200 on more than one occasion. As for the latest Transjet delay this week, it was another fuel diversion, into Palermo this time. One of these days the tour operators will have had enough of the delays and passenger complaints and insurance claims, then maybe next summer........ hey I've just had a thought! If Transjet rescheduled their entire flying program for twelve hours later, they might be almost on time!!!!!

There is, and always will be, a demand for cheap capacity, whether its G registered or SE or anything "European".
If the UK charter airlines cant provide it, the tour operators will
go elsewhere for it....there are plenty of aircraft brokers that service these tour operators with capacity from the UK airlines and non UK.
Why do you think Libra use SWL to service their regional's ? Answer is that their own airline (XLA) would be too expensive to set up in those places for what will only be six months on six months off.
Rentaghost - you dont really believe that because an airline isnt based here year round means they cant perform a punctual reliable programme ?? Rubbish.
Its because its an airline being run badly and on a shoe-string....watch this space for journo interest in SWL - airline stories whether it be loss of life or loss of punctuality sells papers
and thats what will ultimately damage SWL .

Transjet
Just to let all you cynics out there know, yes here at Transjet we have had our share of mis-haps, tech problems, slot delays and bad mouthing, but hey, that's the aviation industry all over!! I have been in this business a long time and carry on trying my best to provide a good service to my pax. For the past two weeks, all the flights I operated went on time with NO tech stops, No ATC delays and NO tech problems! A lot of pax commented on the excellent service they recieved onboard ( all be it, minimal ) and we recieved several complimentary letters to our Base Stewardess's. All airlines have problems, some are just better at speed taping over them than us! Just glad that not everybody believes all the rubbish they read and all of us here at Transjet HAVE been paid our full salary on time! Good flying to you all, A Very Happy Transjet Crew Member
