Description - BritONe is a domestic English carrier flying from its major hub in Stansted to many "secondary" locations throughout the British Isles that have previously seen limited service. By providing more flights and using larger aircraft than typical, BritONe is able to keep costs low and enjoy profitability despite the lower demand.

 

Destinations (all flights originate from Stansted):

 

- Glasgow Prestwick

- Doncaster - Sheffield

- Isle Of Man

- Southampton

- Exeter

- Kirkwall

- Dundee

- Sumburgh

 

Fleet Composition:

 

- 12 Boeing 737-700

 

The current fleet is comprised entirely of all-economy Boeing 737-700s fitted with 149 seats. This aircraft was chosen due to its ability to land at the short runways employed by some of the destination airports as well as its higher profitability.

 

Previously operated in the fleet were 4 737-500 configured in a 140 seat configuration that were used for several years until BritONe could afford newer aircraft. The airline has still never bought a brand new aircraft.

 

History:

 

BritONe was founded in 2012 by a group of private investors over concerns that the acquisition of a large airline by the flag carrier would decrease competition in London as well as multiple secondary cities. Although the fears were somewhat alleviated by the expansion of multiple low-cost airlines in the London area, BritONe continues to be the only competitive presence on smaller routes, especially after the collapse of a large regional airline in 2020.

IATA: XB | ICAO: XBT | Home airport: London Stansted

 

Bolt logo

 

Bolt is a British low cost airline based and headquartered at London Stansted Airport. It also has bases at London Luton, Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Glasgow, Belfast International and Dublin. Bolt was founded on June 17, 1987 and has started flying about two years later, on August 09, 1989.

Bolt was launched in 1987 by a group of British investors who wanted to make air travel cheaper and more accessible. The airline, at the time called Budget Fly, signed an order for up to 35 Airbus A320-200 (20 firm and 15 options) three months after its stablishment. This order was to be delivered from the 1989 second quarter and was the first A320 order from an European low cost carrier.

On May 29, 1989 the first A320 was delivered and the first flight departed from London Gatwick to Lisbon on August 09. By the time of the launch of operations, the airline main hub was Gatwick, wich was changed later to Stansted.

In 1995 Bolt’s fleet was comprised of 28 Airbus A320 with 22 more on order. That same year the airline just had placed a new order for 25 Airbus A319 to be delivered from 1997.

In 1998 the airline announced that would enter in long haul market by 2001 or 2002 operating the all-new Airbus A330-200. Months later, the airline signed na order for 10 A330-200 with options for 5 A330-300, to be delivered from the first quarter of 2002. It also ordered 12 more A320. By the end of that year the fleet was 36 A320 and 7 A319.

Bolt announced on June, 2001 their first intercontinental destinations: Miami, Newark, Baltimore, Cape Town, Cancun and Rio de Janeiro, with daily flights to US destinations and 3 weekly for the other. The flights would start in March, 2002 after the A330 got delivered in January. In September, 2001, days after the 9/11 attacks, Bolt announced that would not receive their order for 10 A330, wich was supposed to be delivered in about four months and that the long haul flights were cancelled.

By 2004 the fleet started to get bigger again as the airline received 17 leased A320, wich arrived from April to September. In December, the airline’s fleet was of 67 A320 and 25 A319. The next year started with a new order of 28 Airbus A320 and 4 A319 to be delivered from 2006.

By 2010, Bolt’s fleet was comprised by 81 A320, with 12 more on order, and 29 A319. In May, 2010 the airline announced that the A319 would be replaced by used A320 by January, 2012.

On June 16, 2012 the airline announced an order for 125 Airbus A320neo and 50 A321neo to be delivered from 2016. This order would replace the airline’s fleet of 112 Airbus A320-200 by 2023.

In February, 2016 the airline received its first Airbus A320neo aircraft. By the end of that year, the airline operated 21 A320neo and 93 A320-200. In September, 2016 Bolt announced na order for 20 Airbus A321LR and 25 Airbus A330-900neo to start long haul flights from 2019.

In order to receive their first A321LR on January, 2019 and their first A330neo on April, 2019, Bolt announced on September 21, 2018 their first long haul routes: London Stansted to Newark (daily, A321LR from January, 2019, later changing to A330 on May, 2019), Boston (daily A321LR from January, 2019), Baltimore (5 weekly, A321LR from February 2019), Fort Lauderdale (daily, A330 from June, 2019), Oakland (5 weekly, A330 from July, 2019), Johannesburg (5 weekly, from September 2019) and São Paulo Guarulhos (3 weekly, A330 from November, 2019), as well as Manchester to Newark and Boston (both daily A321LR, from July, 2019) and Dublin to Newark (daily A321LR, from May, 2019). The airline also presented their all new Thunder Class, a business class concept similar to JetBlue Mint, wich will be fitted on the new A321LR and A330-900. By the end of 2018, the Bolt’s fleet was 46 A320neo, 65 A320-200 and 6 A321neo.

On January, 2019 Bolt received their first A321LR and started flying to the US, followed by the delivery of the first A330neo by April. On June, at the Paris Air Show a new Airbus order was announced: 60 A321neo and 25 A321XLR, the first with deliveries from 2021 and the latter from 2024. On December 31, 2019 the fleet was 56 A320neo, 43 A320-200, 19 A321neo, 8 A321LR and 6 A330-900. The airline also started daily flights from Stansted to Toronto with the A321LR.

On April, 2020, due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, Bolt retired their remaining 41 A320-200 immediatly and deferred the deliveries of the remaining A330neo ordered to 2022. Bolt’s 6 A330-900 was converted to Preighter to operate cargo flights to Beijing, Singapore, New York, Miami, San Francisco, Toronto, São Paulo, Santiago de Chile, Dubai, Tel Aviv and Mumbai. About 85% of the remaining fleet of 58 A320neo, 20 A321neo and 8 A321LR was parked across Europe and the entire A330 fleet was flying cargo routes.

On October, 2021 about 20% of the fleet is still parked. The airline received 12 more A320neo and 3 A321neo in 2020 and from January to October, 2021 Bolt received 5 A320neo, 8 A321neo and 3 A321LR. The A330neo are still flying cargo routes, daily passenger flights from London and Manchester to Dubai started on June, 2021 operated by A321LR. Flights to the US resumed on July, 2021, operating daily A321LR flights from London Stansted to Newark and Boston and from Manchester to Newark. Flights to Brazil and other North American destination will resume from December, 2021.

Probably not going to do that well in originality, but here is my submission. 

British Atlantic Airways | England | Category A

IATA: BA | IACO: BAA

Callsign: REGAL | Home Airport: London Heathrow (LHR/EGLL)

 

Lore: The origins of British Atlantic Airways can be traced back all the way to Britain's first aviation companies in the 1920s and 1930s. During that time, as the largest privately owned British airline at the time, English Atlantic Aviation had established itself as an industry leader. It was the second airline to offer non-stop flights between London and New York on it's DC-4s. It was the first airline to fly the de-Havilland Comet, and the first airline outside the United States to fly the Boeing 707. By the early 1970s, English Atlantic Aviation had renamed itself British Atlantic Airways following a complex series of airline mergers, and had become Europe's largest airline at the time.

 

Following the merger, British Atlantic Airways continued to lead the way. For example, the Concorde. British Atlantic Airways made sure to launch flights on the exact same day as the other operators: January 21, 1976. In addition, the airline continued to introduce revolutionary international business (and later premium economy) class products every few years, and they still do so even to this day. The most well known example is when British Atlantic Airways lead the way with the world's first lay-flat business class seat in 2000, in addition to adding a premium economy cabin to their widebodies at the same time.

 

To this day, British Atlantic Airways is seen as one of the worlds most prestigious airlines, (Scones and tea must be served on ALL flights,) and they continue to lead the way in innovation. IDK why the livery is so small here.

Aer Laighin | Ireland | Category B

IATA: AL | ICAO: LGN | Home airport: Dublin Airport (DUB/EIDW)BVrzrg0.png

Aer Laighin was an Irish low-cost carrier operating out of Dublin. Founded in 1987 shortly after the deregulation of air transport between Ireland and the U.K. in 1986, the airline mainly flew to destinations within the British Isles and Western Europe, including the U.K., France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and West Germany (later Germany).

The name, Irish for Leinster, is a pun on the English word "airline".

 

At its peak in the late 1990s, Aer Laighin operated a fleet of eighteen Boeing 737-300 aircraft in a single-class layout. All of the 737s used the same 1987 cheatline livery shown above. Following the rise of other low-cost carriers in the EU, particularly Ryanair, the airline became increasingly unprofitable. It fell further into financial ruin after Ryanair's massive fleet expansion in the wake of the attacks of September 11, 2001, and eventually met its demise in the autumn of 2005.

 

This particular airframe, EI-CDE, was delivered to the airline in 1994, and remained with the airline until its end. It was later re-registered in Ukraine, where it was scrapped.

Hey all! 

Here are the results of this year’s inaugural UKIE design competition

I hope you have all had fun designing as some of these liveries are outstanding.

If you got a low score, don’t be disheartened- this competition is just for fun.

For now these are just the scores, hopefully I can get around to putting out full marking, probably not.

 

 

NOTE: Scores are loosely used by the old ‘marking system’ This means that scores will be slightly lower , but the ranking stays the same

IMG_3029.png
 

I’m also very happy to announce the second edition of this challenge!

The likely dates for this will be:

9 - 23 September 2022

This is still in the works and these dates are just what I’m aiming for.
