Spotted by eagle eyed Kevin, the Membership Secretary: a new low cost
airline is being launched at Luton, called “NOW”. The new airline
will offer fixed fares according to the season, so that all passengers
on the same flight will have paid the same amount. Now’s flights will
be priced in zones, e.g. Manchester is in Zone A, a one way flight will
start from £35. Whereas Lisbon in Zone E will have one way fares starting
from £65 + tax.
Now is scheduled to begin services in June 2003, using 2 aircraft flying
to
Manchester, Lisbon, Tenerife, Jersey and Rome. After 3 months there
are plans to add an aircraft to the fleet add Valencia and Dusseldorf
to the list of destinations serviced.
This will add another 30 flights/week at Luton providing another 650,000
seats in the first year.
Now expect to sell around 80% of the tickets via their website
