Canadian Xpress March 2013 Challenge: Spring Break
It’s been a long snowy winter and everyone is looking for some fun in the sun. Spring Break is here and is one of the busiest travel times of the year. This month, we are helping travelers as they pack up the kids and head south for a family get away that doesn’t require anyone to put on a hat, boots, or a winter coat.
For the March Challenge, pilots will depart Montreal (CYUL) with either the Canadian Xpress Boeing 737-900NG or Airbus A320-200 and fly to Orlando (KMCO).
Join Canadian Xpress today in order to participate as there are some great prizes to be Continue reading

SparkJet Virtual Celebrates First Month of Operations, Still Accepting Applications!
FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida — SparkJet ‘s executives and Crew Members celebrated yesterday the successful completion of the first month of operations. “We currently have 19 pilots, have logged over 118 flights adding up to over 291 hours and covering over 95,000 miles. The first month saw SparkJet finances in the black with over a million dollars in revenue for the month of February” said SparkJet CEO Zeke Elias. While there are many more plans in the work behind the scenes at SparkJet headquarters, the management is very secretive about the future strategies for SparkJet, as of last week though a rumor of services to Faa’a International Airport (ICAO: NTAA) in Tahiti has been “lying around the offices and management keeps talking about “Paradise” yet management took a trip to Montreal, Quebec, Canada for undisclosed reasons.
In the meantime, SparkJet is still accepting applications for First Officers, if you’re interested please apply at http://spark-jet.com/index.php/content/careers#close

flyeuro.com Set and Prepared to Take on the European Market…
LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND – The press has gathered at the newly refurbished building at Albert Docks in Liverpool to interview the staff of a brand new European low-cost conglomerate, flyeuro.com. The plans of the airline are very ambitious, however at the opening conference, they have announced the opening of the recruitment process for pilots and staff. The airline is set to be a direct competitor, to some of European’s biggest low-cost airlines. flyeuro’s goal is “to become Europe’s favorite commercial virtual airline.” But can they pull it off?
With two operational hubs in United Kingdom (Liverpool and London Gatwick) and one in Poland (Katowice), flyeuro.com is operating over 100 routes daily to more than 50 European destinations, with over 30 Boeing 737 family type aircraft.
“We’ve been ambitious about what we’ve been doing to create the airline, we’re full of motivation to run it and we’re ambitious to expand and go that one step further – above and beyond…” said flyeuro’s Chief Executive Officer, Kamil Bonczyk. “We want to discover new lands, and give pilots and passengers a simple and a flexible experience. Three hubs and fifty destinations is just not enough for us.” – he added. When asked about plans for the future, he said “Possibly a BAe 146 for regional operations? Or maybe even a fourth hub for the Summer Schedule? It will all depend on the growth towards our ambitious goal”.
The airline has launched an extensive recruiting campaign at their website: http://flyeurova.com. Beside pilot recruitment, qualified individuals can try managerial careers within the airline. Additionally, we have asked Continue reading
Platinum Airways Revisits Peak Traffic
As Platinum Airways’ Peak Traffic Destination of the Week Series, that visits airports close to the world’s highest mountains, is in its final week, the Open Skies airline announces that it is to be revisited. However, Peak Traffic Revisited will be completely different: the March series airports will take pilots to four airports that are the world’s busiest in their respective category.
Whilst the original Peak Traffic series focused on the word peak, Peak Traffic Revisited pays more attention to the word traffic. Platinum Airways’ March DOTW series will stop at four extremely busy airports that claim top spot in four different categories of traffic. The series’ first destination is Van Nuys Airport (KVNY) near Los Angeles, the world’s busiest general aviation traffic movements airport. From there, we will travel to London’s Heathrow Airport (EGLL), the world’s leading airport in terms of international passengers. The third Peak Traffic Revisited airport is Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL), by far the world’s busiest from a general traffic movements perspective. We end the series with the world’s busiest airport during a special event: Wittman Regional Airport aka Oshkosh (KOSH), with its annual airshow, the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.
DOTW missions qualify for a 5% bonus if Continue reading
