A friend of mine has just come back from New York flying with EOS. In short he said for the money they can't be beaten. As we're planning a trip to New York later next year I thought I'd check out their prices and compared with UC they are effectively less than half the cost. I also looked at Max Jet and Silverjet and they are even cheaper.

I've read a couple of trip reports on VFlyer and these seemed positive as well so on this basis I'm thinking of giving one of them a go as for me the only real inconvenience of flying with these airlines is that they are based in Luton or Stansted.

This seems like the kind of innovation in the Airline business that has started to put VS in the shade.

Not sure if this is in the wrong forum but anyways will respond.

I agree with you these new business class airlines are offering really good value.

With regards to them using LTN and STN I guess how you view it. Some may view it as an airport full of LCC carriers but I would view it as an airport with a lot less pax and better than service than you would get at LHR (especially true with Silverjet). My 2 cents for what its worth.

And that is the whole point, I have done a couple of flights with Maxjet.

Faced with a $800 VS coach ticket or a $800 MY ticket I took MY and have not regretted it.

I don't blame you Scrooge, it's a real no-brainer.
