The Email below is from a friend at EOS. I removed the names of people involved. It looks like EOS is really looking to expand their business. Rumor has it that Dubai is in the works for June and Paris will finally come in October.
Eos Team,
I have the pleasure of informing you that last Friday, February 1, 2008, Eos Airlines received an addition to Operations Specifications B050, Authorized Areas of En Route Operations, to include all of South America, Central America and the Caribbean. Along with this approval, Eos received authorization to operate ETOPS flights in these areas. These two approvals greatly increase our available areas of operation and offers new opportunities for Eos. This was accomplished by completing a Table Top exercise on Thursday, January 31, 2008, in which all operations departments participated and then completing a validation flight on Friday with the FAA observing the operation.
This was a joint effort by all departments and was completed in record time to meet the requirements of our new track charter operation. It required the full support of many individuals in each department and in particular I would like to acknowledge the following individuals who were directly involved in completing the validation flight. (Names removed for privacy) who were on duty for 19 ½ hours to complete the round robin JFK-Port of Spain-George Town-JFK flight. The Flight Attendants on the flight were (Names removed for privacy). The Flight Attendants picking up the flight in Port of Spain and flying the George Town-JFK legs were (Names removed for privacy). In advance of the flight and setting up support operations in Port of Spain and George Town for the validation flight were XXXX, Manager of Stations Training and Standards and XXXX, Manager of safety. Supporting the flight from SOC were XXXX, Director of SOC and XXXXX, Dispatcher.
Once again the people of Eos have demonstrated that we truly are a "Category of One".
Regards,
XXXXXXXXXX
