Travel & Leisure: Astra Jet

Mr. Simon Edwards is the CEO of Astra Jet and has a background of 25 years in the airline industry. He described Astra Jet as an indirect air carrier/ virtual airline. They essentially partner with an existing carrier and over-brand the airline so they operate on their behalf. Astra Jet then goes out to sell the program. The "Partners in Flight" arrive with an airplane they contract with them and they build their product around what is brought to them. The airline is the "legal holder/carrier" which means that they provide the flight crew, maintenance, insurance, etc. Which enables Astra Jet to begin operations in a short period of time...essentially a Turn Key Operation! They will be moving forward to flying programs which they hope to be doing this summer. The main programs will be coming in from Europe and Brazil as a leisure carrier to the Central Florida area. They also plan on bringing service back, by not charging "extra" fees for meals, in-flight entertainment, and baggage handling.

Also that the ice cream industry was booming from an existing base of 23 billion and with the expectation to increase to 27 billion by the end of 2012.
