Manhattan Jet Charter is looking to expand its managed fleet with more Premier 1 and with longer haul aircraft. Operations manager Tracy Gates says: 'There is a huge requirement for the Premier 1 in the marketplace." Manhattan took delivery of the first UK-registered Premier 1 at the Farnborough International Air Show 2004. 'It has done 1,000 hours of service," says Gates. It now manages another two Premier 1. "We are flying all three constantly. We would like some more. And we would like some long-haul aircraft to cultivate existing demand." She adds: "The Premier 1 is very economic - it is fast and has a lovely cabin."
