He highlighted a memorable joint cross-Atlantic event held during the pandemic, noting it "enabled us to share our joint passion for virtual aviation as well as bring two communities together for some laughter and discussion at a much needed time in the world."
William Hogarth, MetroAir's CEO, reflected on the partnership's significance: "It has been an honour to be affiliated with Fly UK and I believe we did set a precedent as being the first two well-established airlines to strike up a partnership in the virtual world."
Both airlines confirmed that members with accounts at both organizations would retain their memberships without disruption, provided they met standard activity requirements. MetroAir noted that NewAira services would continue operating in the Balkans region, with additional announcements expected.
