Inaugural flight of Silverjet from London Luton to New York (EWR).

Arrived at Luton airport at 08:30 for the 10:00 departure, there are no check in desks so you go straight into the Silver lounge, where your ticket is checked and you are given a boarding card. A staff member will then come and take any luggage you may have.

Boarded the Boeing 767.200 at 09:40 and was offered champagne and canapes. The flight pushed back on time and we were airborne within 5 minutes.

In-flight services started a few minutes after take off, consisting of drinks which were ordered from a nicely presented menu, and a very tasty 5 course lunch. Food and drinks are brought to you on trays, which eliminated the need for those noisy trolleys.

The staff are all well presented and always seem to have a smile on their faces, even after a 7 hour flight across the pond.

I think this airline will give Eos and Maxjet a run for their money. Keep up the good work Silverjet.
