The low cost sub of Travel Service, a Czech airline. The will be using to 737-500’s.
And just read a headline over at Skyliner aviation that a new low cost is to start up in Pakistan, Air Blue, using 3 A320’s!

Various low cost airlines have been leaked as well, we know for instance how NOW and Mama Air will look when/if they commence operations. I seem to recall that VG Airlines was known beforehand as well, but am not sure on that one.
Read my post, I sad “No airline ALLOWS a picture of their livery to go public before its painted”
Sure, some are leaked, but not at the request of the airline.
Air holland is an exception as they need the PR.
Fact of the matter is, that scheme there would be very expensive. And I don’t see a low cost carrier going for it, unless the managment were brainless. IF so, the airline is doomed
Oh, and if you hadn’t noticed…. I do this as a job!

they certainly won’t be low cost with that paint job.
I think that picture is a red herring.
No airline allows a picture of their livery to go public before its painted. NO airline!

Better yet, a few days ago they said they wanted to start in Denmark! I can strongly advice EVERYONE not to book a flight with them!
