Jam Tarts 1874 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 From the nature of this questionnaire on the official site could Vlad be getting into the cheap flights business? If so would you risk getting on a Vlad charter? http://www.heartsfc.co.uk/articles/20100215/one-question-questionnaire-lithuania_2241384_1966424 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harmonica Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 You could just picture him at the airport trying to tell the pilots how to do their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Is Back Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 You could just picture him at the airport trying to tell the pilots how to do their job. Let's just hope the pilots don't sign contracts in the same way as footballers do! He is a cheeky ###### though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamboy81 Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 would you risk getting on a Vlad charter? Absolutely. Its not as if Vlad has a reputation for cutting corners or being incompetent. Proper maintenance is hardly important on an aircraft. If any parts need replaced, he'll get them down the scrappies and install them on a "temporary" basis. Then, he'll fire the pilots and appoint his neice and son to fly the plane back and forward in order to break the dominance of American Airlines and BA within 5 years.

Victorian Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 CRAZYJET? MADFUDAIR? he should instead sell charter trips between edinburgh and kaunas in his K-19 widowmaker submarine that he bought. "we're all going on a madfud holiday, no more working for a year or two, fun and laughter on our madfud holiday, no more working for me and you.... and we all might die too..."

redm Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Oh god. He hasn't gone and bought that Star1 Airline or whatever they're called, has he? Romanov air or not, I definitely want to plan a trip to Lithuania sometime soon....probably this year. Been saying that since I heard the news regarding the new routes from Edinburgh. Romanovs and other assorted mentalists aside, it does look like a pretty cool place to visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshallschunkychicken Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I reckon it's more likely he's looking to organise stag type events in Vilnius, as the route has been opened up, rather than go in competition with the likes of Ryanair.

Maroon tinted glasses 2 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Oh Dear, He would spend a large chunk of time giving boxing lessons to the pilots before the flights (as it would be essential to the job)and would promise that everything would be in place for them to get on with their jobs only to pull the plug on the purchase of aviation fuel at the last min.

Magnoem Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Some quality comments in this thread On a serious note, it doesn't have to do much with VR. It's just Ryanair opening a direct flight to Edinburgh. There are a lot of Lithuanians working or studying in the UK, and Edinburgh is one of the cities with a considerably large community.

Yes, but why would Hearts be running a poll and taking steps to gauge interest? That's the weird part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bureau de Change facilities at Ukio Bankas? Show your season ticket and get a better deal on accommodation? Our owner is Lithuanian and now there is a market for people to go to and from Edinburgh and Vilnius. He has a foot in both markets so I'm sure he will want to develop some sort of product/service to caash in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
