I am glad you posted the Easyjet Picture, Dimitris. It will be so exciting to have a vertical take off from the beach and even better to have no transfers to the airport to worry about. Just imagine on departure day, pack case, breakfast, walk to landing point near beach, the jet arrives, you get on and then you take off for home.
I suppose Arillas was a good choice for Easyjet to test the new VTOL jet, especially as Stelios Haji-Ioannou knows the area well as he spent many holidays there when he was a young boy.
The new jets will be ideal for Corfu because the current runway is short and not very good for conventional take-off and landings.
Hopefully the new service will start in 2011.
