Nexus Airline - Teen launches low-cost airline

Nexus Airline - A BRITISH teenager has launched a low-cost airline from his bedroom, becoming possibly the youngest airline boss in the world.

"I started flying lessons when I was 16 and my friends started joking about us buying a plane together and flying people around the world," said Daniel Reilly, an 18-year-old student, from Maghull, in Merseyside, northern England.

"It was just a joke really but I took it a bit more seriously and decided to look into it," he said.

Mr Reilly decided to explore how to establish an airline as part of a business studies course that he was taking as part of his high school A-Level subjects.

"I called round a few airlines and asked how they had done it and I slowly realised it was quite achievable," he said.

Mr Reillyl, who attends Deyes High School in Maghull, showed his project for Nexus Airline to a financial adviser who found backers for the business.

Initially Nexus will operate services from Liverpool Airport, northern England, to the Spanish Canary Islands destinations of Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Click Here to Read Full Article
