MADRID. Strong competition that there exercise the companies of low cost and the high prices of the oil do not seem to have reduced the expectations of the investing groups that months ago they bet for getting in the air business.

The plan of business contemplates an invoicing of 21 million Euros at the conclusion of the year and entering benefits between the second one and the third semester of operations.
The philosophy of the company centres on offering a qualit product to prices more small than the competition, thanks to the small structure of costs that theirenjoys. Sources of the company think that the tariffs will be between 30 and one 40 % cheaper than the commercialized ones for Iberia. The first tickets, which will be put to the sale from next Monday, the 17th of May (all of class tourist), only will be able to be acquired across Internet and of the telephonic head office of reservations.

Well having contacted them over 2 months ago, they have failed to reply to my requests for recruitment information. Bad comms from the start is not a good sign, especially for a company who claims to want to look after their staff......
