Eos Airlines Goes Bust. Joins MAXJet in the Business Class Dead Pile.
Posted by Steve Rhode as Aviation Related, Bankruptcy, Business Failures
So a quick search about MAXJet will uncover the other articles that I’ve written about MAXJet. The irony is that the airline that offered a similar service, like MAXJet, has now gone belly-up as well. Eos flew 48 seat 757s between JFK in New York and Stanstead, near London, England.
