BOCA RATON, Fla. – Avatar Airlines will hold a media availability on Thursday, May 15, 2014 to introduce journalists to Founder Barry Michaels and other members of our executive team. Avatar Airlines President and COO Marvin Ruthenberg and Michael E. Zapin, along with key personnel from other US airlines, will be attending the “World Low Cost Airlines (http://www.terrapinn.com/ When: Thursday, May 15th, 4:00 p.m. Where: World Low Cost Airlines Conference -- Trump International Beach Resort, Miami, FL Who: Barry Michaels, Founder | Marvin Ruthenberg, President & COO | Michael E. Zapin, Executive Vice President Avatar's unique business model capitalizes on the flexibility and proven track record of the Boeing 747 jumbo jet and equipping it with 539 economy and 42 office class seats on the upper deck will provide Avatar with the lowest available cost per seat mile in the industry. Combining this with other profit centers allows Avatar to offer fares at 50% or more below the lowest fares available by other carriers. Avatar's fares will be like NOTHING anyone has ever seen before. NY to Miami - $49 one way (plus tax); LA to NY $79, etc., and these fares are good for every economy class seat purchased 30 days or more in advance. Real food --- Avatar plans to partner with popular restaurants and offer food for sale online at the time of ticket purchase and will not carry any food on board which has not been pre sold. Branding --- anything you can see or touch will be for sale to companies wishing to promote their own brands including full aircraft wraps. Cargo - the 747 has the ability to carry up to 70,000 pounds of containerized freight in addition to a full load of passengers at a nominal additional cost. Virtually every part of Avatar's plan has been designed to build and sustain profits while subsidizing the cost of fares. The exact OPPOSITE of what other air carriers do - which is to nickel the consumer with hidden fees. Avatar will have No luggage fees, No seat selection fees and No Wi-Fi fees.

Avatar will make full use of the latest technology in order to bring down the cost of air travel, without sacrificing the creature comforts of luxury flight. Exclusive use of online reservations (“straight to the gate”) is a tremendous savings for Avatar, and allows it to pass on a tremendous savings to its passengers. Not only will Avatar not sacrifice creature comforts, it will actually enhance them. We realize that “creature comforts” may mean different things to different passengers. Some passengers may want to use their flight-time to totally unplug and relax by catching a few extra winks or by even curling up with a good book. We get it. There’s no reason these passengers should have to pay for technology they don’t plan on using. It’s one of the ways Avatar plans to keep the overall cost of flight travel at remarkably low levels. Avatar Airlines will utilize four-engine Boeing 747 jumbo jets, reconfigured with 539 seats in the main cabin and 42 office class seats on the upper deck, resulting in the lowest cost per available seat mile in the industry. A tremendous savings will be passed on directly to our passengers because of this. It’s not rocket science. Bigger aircraft + more seats = lower price. And when you’re free to walk about the cabin, you’ll have two roomy aisles to choose from, not to mention an average of about 12 restrooms.
