A few weeks ago we mentioned Fly First, a company that plans to fly business class Boeing 757s from New York to London with four luxury cabins. Now the NY Times reports that they will have competition before they even launch. A group of aviation entrepreneurs plan to create another all-business airline making the same run starting in mid-September. The airline, Eos, named after the Greek goddess of the dawn, has secured their funding and will be leasing three aircraft to start. Fly First will fly from Luton to Newark whereas Eos will fly from Stansted to Kennedy.

It's encouraging to see companies begin to fill the niche between commercial and wholly private air travel.
A little digging around turned up Eos' website, http://www.eosairlines.com/ , which provides a little more information about the service they're offering, although no word on pricing. Apparently, each passenger will have 21 square feet of personal space on the airplane.
