Malpensa will be the only airport in the world with two "all business" carriers

We have spoken often, and we also reviewed, La Compagnie. French carrier operating a fleet of 2 A321lr outfitted with only the business class cabin.

This airline flies from Paris, Nice and Milan Malpensa to Newark, the second intercontinental stopover in the New York area. There is no other airline in the world to operate scheduled flights in this mode.

Fly like a KING, the Valtur proposal

If these days we read about controversy over high prices, especially related to connections to the islands and the south, the initiative of Valtur, a well-known Italian tour operator, goes in the opposite direction.

"We proudly present to the market this new operation, which is the result of a strategic vision in tune with the potential of tourism of the future and a great deal of work on the construction of the proposal, fine-tuned by different divisions of our group," explains the product manager, Paola Coccarelli - -. It is a logistically and economically important operation, but when we said we wanted to work in order to Positioning the Valtur brand in a lifestyle and upscale key we knew that we had to give substance to this goal by going through new types of engagement that are indispensable for charting unexplored and innovative scenarios. Since the launch of Fly Like a King, the feedback has been very good and tell us that the market is increasingly demanding services capable of satisfying the need for freedom: from the fixity of everyday life, from the materiality of certain aspects of life, from that which eliminates even the slightest stress from the pleasantness of such a precious moment as a vacation."

The idea was simple, Valtur has wetleased a 737/400 from Maltese airline Air Horizont outfitted solely with 78 business class seats, with a 2-2 configuration. The company usually charters this plane to clients such as soccer teams, corporations and governments to move their employees/customers.

The flight will be exclusively included in customers who choose to stay in August at Valtur facilities Sardinia Baia dei Pini and Valtur Sardegna Tirreno Resort or at one of the other facilities Nicolaus makes available to its guests in the area.

The flights will connect Milan Malpensa to Olbia, between August 5 and 29. Flight HAT4740 will depart Malpensa at 9:20 a.m. to land about 60 minutes later. The return flight, HAT4741 will take off at 11:35 a.m. from Olbia to return to the Lombardy airport at 12:50 p.m.

Of course it will only be a few charter connections, but for a few Saturdays MXP will record a very difficult record to break.
