    The individual cost is very low, but over a period of time it can be quite substantial. Back in the days when we had four Saab 340’s operating schedules (around 1993), we spent circa £50,000 per year on ‘swiss chocolate’. This was a very small bar of chocolate handed out with the afternoon/evening meal.

    And really nice they were too. Very classy wrapped in the gold foil 🙂

    Euromanx is owned by the same guy who owns Woodgate Executive Air Charter based IOM and BFS. They own a J31 out right which was in Coventry last i heard yet to be used by Euromanx.

    Another rumour was to lease a Flightline 146 but it was just a rumour

    BritishNorthWest (Blackpool) EMB-110

    Thought they ceased operations a couple of years ago?
    Any idea of the reg of the Bandit they use. I presume its one of Skydrifts G-TABS or G-FLTY or maybe they’ve brought in another Dutch one?

    Now the worst part….. Zakynthos airport. Believe me, it IS as bad as everyone says. We had to wait 2 and a half hours for our bags, flights that had landed hours ago were in front of our flight on the ONE! carousel.

    God and i thought yesterday was bad for time waiting to reclaim baggage were i work 😮

    Great report 🙂
