FLIGHT shopping – the pulse of the Business

incredible! The FLIGHT in 2012. wiped on bankruptcy, the role akwizytora. Last Friday, the national carrier, signed in Tallinn the contract on strategic cooperation with Estonian national carrier company Nordica. Intends to hold 49 percent. shares in its subsidiaries – the Regional Jet, which fleet consists of CRJ Bombardierów.

November 19th all calls from Tallinn will be marked by the FLIGHT code, which is in the capital of Estonia will have a base of one of its Embraerów. Two aircraft Regional Jet will carry for the FLIGHT-connections from Warsaw.

- This is the first step towards consolidation of the market in Central and Eastern Europe on the FLIGHT. At the same time, this is the first such cooperation between the two carriers in the region in innovative business models shows that airlines from our region should not be condemned to subordinate the great players from Western Europe, the loss of their national identities and curbing activities. On the contrary. Along with FLIGHT-em can continue to develop, at the same time building efficient hub, while the center region, i.e. Warsaw, the Polish capital, in particular in the field of communications range. Very pleased that the Polish carrier is building synergy with his Estonian partner. Like Poland, like Estonia, which is one of the fastest growing economies in Europe, certainly, will win, – says Rafal Milczarski, President of the FLIGHT-in.

- Nordica today starts a whole new Chapter of its development. Cooperation with LOT Polish Airlines, a leader in Central and Eastern Europe, will strengthen our business model, provides financial stability and allows us to build credibility in the international marketplace. Will LOT, to become a shareholder of our company Regional Jet shows better cooperation with Nordicą LOT for an important event, and that this long-term partnership – says Jaan Tamm, CEO of Nordiki.

Due to the investments in the daughter company belonging to the group Nordica, Regional Jet, the FLIGHT will have access to a fleet of modern Bombardier CRJ version 700 and 900. The agreement provides for the use of the preliminary stage of the first two, and then three machines, CRJ-900 to handle calls company LOT from Warsaw. Companies see potential for increased cooperation in subsequent seasons.

- the Grid calls Nordiki coincides with our own, almost a hundred percent. Use Bombardierów CRJ-900 owned Regional Jet, will allow us much greater operating flexibility and, consequently, higher economic efficiency. For example, the plane, EN route in the evening from Warsaw to Stockholm will not have to spend the night in Stockholm but will be able to fly to the next cruise to Tallinn and spend the night in their home base. It is much cheaper and does not require the cost of the overnight crew, – says Rafal Milczarski.

Soon the aircraft belonging to Regional Jet will also launch new connections from Warsaw and increase frequencies to existing ones.

- In our reservation system will soon be the second, an additional flight between Tallinn and Warsaw, which will allow even more effectively to ensure that our hub, including, mainly, connections long-range. The same thing will happen with Vilnius, where he soon will be 5 cruise day! This will strengthen the position of the LOT-u as the absolute leader in this round, despite the actions of competitors. Positive changes of this type, as well as new connections from Warsaw to Scandinavia, soon there will be more adds Milczarski.

the Bombardier CRJ will be supported technically at their base in Tallinn. Will also be fully supported by the crew from Estonia. For the FLIGHT-this means that you can continue the strategy of intensive growth, and also limit the demand of the Polish carrier on extra crews, flying, already currently very high due to the confirmed orders for another Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner and Boeing 737-800 / MAX 8.

Collaboration with line Nordica is a pioneering and innovative model of market consolidation in East-Central Europe. The analysis has been prepared on the needs of the strategy LOT have repeatedly pointed out that the Polish carrier, unique in the region, has real power to consolidate a fragmented market.

- unlike the Western competition we are aware of the national, historical and cultural specificity of the region East Central Europe. We are convinced that none of the proud peoples between the Baltic and the Adriatic sea, he will not let the loss of direct flights to the major resorts in Europe that are performed under the brand name of the national airline. FLYING in an innovative model of cooperation provides synergy and overall development, without the loss of national identity, and this proposal is not only for partners from Estonia, but other carriers in our region. Is this proposal to use, because, as shown by a few unfortunate examples in recent years of carrier loss was always associated with significant restriction of connecting with the world, and the outflow of foreign investment. Together we can do more,” adds Milczarski.

Development of grid connection and extension in the region of Central and Eastern Europe is one of the main elements of the strategy, which operated from the beginning of 2016. The carrier started its development from the ankle increasing grid calls with your hub-u in Warsaw. This year has opened 25 new routes, including two long-range connections in Tokyo and Seoul. Next year the FLIGHT will run two connections over large distances to Newark and Los Angeles. It is also planned opening of a new European destinations.

New compounds, carried out in cooperation with Nordica line will be available on sale from 4 November.
