By Anonymous NEW YORK/BOSTON/LOS ANGELES: June 20, 2002 – Aviation veteran Freddy Van Gaever and financier Tony Gram have announced the launch of VG Airlines flying non-stop to Brussels from New York’s Kennedy Airport, Boston’s Logan Airport and California’s LAX. VG Airlines intends to become the business traveler’s choice to Europe with its exceptional fares and high-quality inflight and ground service.
VG Airlines began flying from New York’s JFK Airport on May 23rd; flights from Boston’s Logan Airport start June 20th and flights from LAX will begin June 30th.
VG Airlines offers Business Class and Economy Class travelers a choice of one-way or roundtrip fares to Brussels. Business Class fares from JFK and BOS are $1,200 one-way and $2,200 roundtrip, while Business Class fares from LAX will be $1,700 one-way and $3,200 roundtrip. Economy Class fares are $450 one-way from JFK and BOS and $600 from LAX, while roundtrip fares from JFK and BOS are $500 and $750 from LAX.
“The airline’s mission is to provide a point-to-point, first-rate flying experience for business and economy travelers to Europe at reasonable prices while providing them with ‘refreshing’ inflight service and a high-quality ground experience,” says Freddy Van Gaever.
Business travelers will be treated to an exceptional dining experience featuring fine foods such as lobster, salmon and filet mignon as well as French wines, an assortment of Belgian beer, and fine Belgian chocolates. Economy travelers enjoy hot soup, a choice of freshly prepared baguettes or salad, and desserts including Elizabeth Cake and Cheese Soufflé Tart.
While not a replacement for Sabena Airlines, the former national carrier for Belgium, VG Airlines has acquired many of the airline’s top ground and flight crews and technical staff. VG Airlines has also acquired several of their young Airbus A330-200 planes, thus commencing service with professional and experienced crews and nearly new aircraft. With an average age of 1.6 years, VG Airlines’ fleet has cabins that accommodate 42 Business Class seats with a superior 62” pitch and 160Ú seat back recline, and 187 Economy Class seats with a comfortable 32” pitch. All seats are equipped with integrated entertainment systems.
Reservations can be made through the company’s website at www.flyvg.com, through their call center at 800-536-5984 or through a travel agent. Travelers can also participate in the VG Airlines’ sweepstakes to win a free trip for two to Belgium by visiting the website.

By Anonymous NOVEMBER 4, 2002: Miami, Florida & Mbabane, Swaziland.
Northeast Airlines (Pty.) Limited of Swaziland (Est. March 2002) is pleased to confirm that last week it was granted an official ICAO airline code of NEY and radio call sign "NORTH JET".
In addition, Northeast Airlines just completed the acquisition of an ex-Delta/Tradewinds Lockheed L1011-1 Tristar passenger aircraft (Mfg.

This aircraft has updated interior configured for 12 First Class and 320 Economy Class Seats with a state of the art inflight entertainment, Global Positioning Navigation and communications systems.
Northeast Airlines acquired its first wide-body aircraft via an interim finance facility provided by Sound Financial Corporation of Florida who is involved in a joint-venture with other aircraft aviation assets that are managed by the airline that include two DC-8-50FH cargo jets and two ex-TWA DC-9-32 passenger aircraft as well.
Northeast Airlines is negotiating with an airline 3 to 4 more longer-range L1011 TriStar variants that are planned to be put into service during December or the first quarter of 2003.
Northeast Airlines L1011 Tristar aircraft fleet and DC-8 cargo aircraft shall be target marketed to other airlines, tour operators and foreign governments to provide charter lift for chartering or wet-leasing to airlines, for the upcomming Umurah and Hajj pilgrimage, humanitarian flights and for special charters and emergency sub-service to the smaller scheduled IATA airlines based in Africa, The Middle East, Asia, Pacific Rim, Latin America or Eastern Europe.

Northeast Airlines is led by Eric Paillet, who is President and Managing Director who has a professional, highly qualified and experienced team of aviation executives and airline operations personnel from the USA, Europe and Africa.
Northeast Airlines is seeking additional sources of bridge capital, joint-venture funding or equity investors to take advantage of very low prices on used airline transport aircraft and to rapidly expand its fleet to 5 aircraft in order to caputre market share and a tremendous void left post 9/11 globbaly as now there very few international charter airlines who offer wide-body aircraf to support second and third level airlines.

By Anonymous "I am Susan Jacobs and I once worked for American Airlines. During my six years with the airline I discovered numerous methods that people can employ to acquire free tickets. I describe this method as the "bump" method and it works nearly every time. Additionally, most customers falsely believe that non-refunable tickets can't be returned! However, nearly ALL non-refundable tickets can be fully refunded with little or no added fees. Furthermore, I have actually witnessed customers miss their flights because they get flagged by security. They are searched over three times and can cumulatively take up to an hour of time. There are reasons you are flagged and they can easily be avoided. Sadly, most people pay too much for airplane tickets. Secrets Exposed by Fired Airline Agent is the only authoratative book in existence. The book is newly updated and re-configured with techniques and methods that will work for years to come" - Susan Jacobs 06/15/03
