Well what a better way to get a few extra 757s, an established customer base, facilities, and a product that is already up and running. I'm not to surprised after they announced the code share deal a couple months ago.

Im gonna miss the L'Avion colors but I think they will do very well withh Openskies.. Sounds like a good buy.. Whos going to take the Newark-Orly slot? or is the slot going to be at JFK?

Not bad. I would imagine they'll shift the L'Avion flight to JFK so OpenSkies can say they have twice daily service, but who knows.

I to will miss their cool scheme but I am much happier to see this option than another niche carrier fail, hopefully all the employees will be offered jobs with Open Skies or BA.

Cheers
