Eos Escort Service


Wednesday, April 26, 2006

04262006.4.jpg"Hello, sir, and welcome to Eos Airlines. Hips or lips?" I kid! Eos Airlines, the niche airline offering all-biz-class service between New York and London, had for some time offered an expedited, escorted check-in at curbside for passengers who were running late. The escort included a quick zip through security and everything. The popularity of the service has inspired Eos to offer it for all their passengers, meaning that any Eos ticketholder can swan in quite late -- cutting it as close as 45 minutes before takeoff -- and still make it comfortably onto the plane. I'm guessing they don't have to pay extra for snacks neither.
