Anyone seen a Jetsgo plane yet?

I couldn't find a photo of one on airliners.net, just curious if anyone has seen one?

They look like MD-80's/90's or maybe 717's...is that right?

& pardon my ignorance!

For some reason I really like the paint job on their planes. I've gotta say, I was always weary of Royal, C3, Transat, etc, but this airline just has a different feel to it. Given that I am now living in YYZ, I don't have my choices limited as when I was in YGK!

On a side note:
Jetsgo books $2.1 million in revenue in first week

Fisch, I have to agree with you here. C3K had to have most unappealing livery I have seen. Even worse than Air 2000.

This past Friday one landed behind my AS flight from LAX. They smiley face can book a bit odd in the dark but it may be smiling at all the Maple Leafs.

I flew JetsGo this weekend on YYZ-YVR-YYZ and both flights ran late by about 30-45 minutes. Service was friendly but spartan, with charges for everything from coke ($1) to sandwiches ($4). The ex-Korean Air MD83 was comfortable enough in a 160-seat one class configuration, but only 2 lavs on board left lines for the facilities during the 5hr flight. The Flight Attendants were supposed to be completely bilingual, but seemed to have more than a few problems with English speaking passengers. I switched to French with them after a couple of blank stares and "pardon?". The crew pattern was a horrendous YYZ-YVR-YYZ turn with a YYZ-YUL deadhead at the end. Uniforms were black trousers/skirts with dark green shirts, a JetsGo scarf in green/black and a black leather jacket with a green JetsGo button. Very smart looking.
