Cool

It always amazes me when these wet lease deals are made. Sure, they provide short-term win-win situation for both the airlines, but how good does it work out. 9W->AI is sort of ok as both of them share the same culture.

I assume GF airhostesses would have veils on their face and would be praying during certain times of the day. Would that rule apply to the 9W hostesses as well? Do they have to abide by the policies of the lessee or the lessor? Also when the flight is taking off, the captain would communicate with the ATC as GF 123, and the ATC would be seeing a Jet air on the runway ...

Interesting...
