It's nice to see that the two can operate next to each other. It's also interesting to see the different views of the airlines.
Thomas Cook: after 5 years 6 aircraft
Jetairfly: 10 aircraft after 3 years (and two more comming in 2008)

Only time will tell what's the good vision.

Grtz.

I agree!
It would be nice to see more long haul planes in both companies though...
Jaf could use an extra a/c and it would be nice to see TC doing their own long haul...all leaving from BRU... *dream*

Does anyone have info on the old registrations of the new planes at JAF

Thanks

Also interesting to note that Jetairfly flies the long-haul destinations with its own aircraft, whereas Thomas Cook subcontracts them to Martinair.

Thomas Cook subcontracts Martinair but also TNT, a lot of non belgian airlines e.g.Tunis Air, Balkan,Condor,Bulgaria Airlines,Iberworld,Pegasus Turcus,Tap and sometimes others "air peut etre" from Egypt, it's a pity but if you want to win money you have to do it...

At JAF Futura aircraft get subcontracted during the summer and sometimes Transavia. For the Turkey flights last summer Air Inter was subcontracted (don't know if it will be the same airline this summer though).

With JAF it's very similar, if you book a citytrip to Lisbon, you also get TAP. There are just some destinations where you could not fill 180 seats per week. I think if you look closer, you will find that JAF and TCW operations in the meduim- en short haul sector are very similar.

For JAF it was Inter Airlines to Turkey (Air Inter is already long gone), Futura, Brussels Airlines (f.e. Corsica) and Tunisair on some flights to Tunesia.
