A320 (A320-200) (4 operated),DKF and DIJ both wore the above livery with DOZ being white and DKG wearing the below Air Jamaica hybrid livery due to being leased from said operator (DKF was also leased from Air Jamaica but it was repainted),
Why should this airline be added?
A short lived charter airline headquartered and based out of Shannon, with bases in Cork and Dublin, flying charter flights to Spain, Portugal and Italy from Ireland, as well as operating from the UK on behalf of other airlines to the same destinations but also Morocco and Egypt to name but 2, plus on random charter runs into Europe.It operated a lot of flights for Ryanair during its rapid expansion in the 2000s, memorably being the operator of the flight from Liverpool to Derry which landed at the wrong airport,being quite a regular fixture at Liverpool as Ryanair expanded its new base there. Some routes it undertook for other airlines were to Amsterdam and other cities at random, whereas it had regular work on ski routes in support of Thomson, First Choice and MyTravel out of Irish cities (and Manchester) to Salzburg, Innsbruck and others. They also operated quite regularly for Astraeus from Manchester to Spain, Greece and Egypt when Astraeus was busier or had leased its own fleet out.
They’d be a cool airline to see, bringing a very Irish bright green colour to player’s airports, plus providing another option for flights out of Ireland that isn’t Ryanair. Linking a similar airline with F100’s, EUJet.
