As we land in the middle of the summer season, our charter operations are increasingly focused on special holiday flights, although we're still active in the sports arena and still operating corporate incentive charters. In total, we have 94 special flights planned for July and 68 for August.
Special holiday flights
With the arrival of the holiday season, we're increasing our operations for cruise passengers, with four weekly frequencies for MSC Cruceros and three for Costa Cruceros.
Every Saturday and Sunday we'll be carrying MSC passengers on the Madrid-Hamburg-Madrid and Madrid-Trieste-Madrid routes, two frequencies each day. For Costa Cruceros, we'll be operating the Madrid-Bari-Madrid route twice on Fridays and once on Saturdays.
We also plan to extend until next spring our holiday charter to Egypt in collaboration with Sama Travel. Every Saturday in July and August, we'll be operating a weekly frequency to the country of the pyramids, flying alternately to El Cairo and Luxor.
Corporate charters and other special flights
In July we'll be operating two charters simultaneously for a corporate incentive trip to Italy, one from Madrid to Bologna and the other from Venice to Madrid.
That same month we also have two Madrid-Barcelona charter flights for the members of a US children's choir.
Private planes for sports events
Sports events continue throughout the summer so we'll taking clubs, teams and managers to top-level competitions.
As sponsors of the COE (Spanish Olympic Committee), on 4 and 7 July we'll be operating charter flights to bring back the athletes from the Mediterranean Games in Algiers.
And as sponsors of the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB), we'll be taking the players from Zaragoza to Tiflis, Tiflis to Riga and Riga to Madrid to participate in their international competitions.
Continuing with our sports sponsorships, on 3 July we'll be operating a charter flight to take the Spain Women's National Football Team from Naples to London to participate in the UEFA Women's Championship in the United Kingdom.
In July and August we'll also be operating other special flights to take some of the most important Spanish football clubs to destinations on their pre-season tour as well as to various international competitions.
