Who Are Comair?
Comair started life as Commercial Airways in 1946, with a solitary aircraft. They have developed steadily over the following 50 years, as one would have hoped, and in 1996 they joined forces with British Airways to become the first BA franchisee outside Europe. At the time they flew mostly domestic routes including some propellor planes to Krueger Park, but a few years ago they dropped those and became all-jet. They also began updating some of the older aircraft, getting some “new” 737s that were less than ten years old. Being a franchise of BA means that they operate to BA standards, delivering the BA product. So the aircraft is painted like a BA plane, on board there are BA standard seats; the crew wear BA uniforms, the procedures are the same as BA and the meal is of a BA standard served on BA trays. Really, you feel that you are on a BA flight. I flew with Comair about 8 times in 1996 and 1997, and most recently in March 2004. I booked the ticket through British Airways. Check-In I
