Hello,
I just been looking at one of the polls and noticed that Airtours International is going to become MyTravel on Monday 1st April.
I am flying with Airtours on 31st March in the afternoon some time to LGW. As I am coming across the Atlantic, I am coming forward in time and land at Gatwick at 07:10hrs in the morning…
…so, technically, I am on one of the last ever Airtours flights! 🙂

Seriously i wouldn’t mind a 757 model as i didn’t buy one on the way out to crete, then on the return flight we flew DC-10 and they didn’t have any – then at xmas they wouldn’t sell me one 🙁

Well T5, I supose it was a hint. no, not really…I wouldnt be that cheaky!
When you try to pass Gatwick security simply inform them that you are a dustbin man coming to collect all the unwanted Airtours material.
Its sure to work.
Regards
Benair

I think I should start a business – The Airtours Souvenir Shop – I’ll raid every seat back when disembarking the aircraft and probably get arrested when passing through Gatwick on 1st April!
I’ll see if they will also give me some aircraft models for free because they can’t exactly sell them after 1st April as they are not gonna be Airtours much longer!
Get your requests in now!

Benair – is that a hint?

RE: AIH ‘stuff’!
i’m sure airtours are gonna get rid of the stuff anyway, what is it to them if they lose a few bits from their aircraft?

AIH ‘stuff’!
::Mk:: Benair here. Basically get as much as you possibly can….What are they going to do with it?
(By the way….I need an A320 model to complete my fleet!)
Cheers

Any requests for any Airtours souvenirs?
Blankets? The last ever Airtours in-flight magazine? Safety Cards?!
I’m sure we can talk about costs at a later date! 🙂
