Beauty treatments are to be offered to long haul charter passengers from this summer.

First Choice Airways is to trial “air therapists” on selected flights from May in its upgraded Star Class Premier cabin.

Passengers flying to Cancun and Cozumel in Mexico will be able to buy a range of treatments for £12.50 provided by trained beauty therapists in conjuction with skincare company Deralogica.

Upper back and scalp massages, pressure point massaging, facial mapping and skin refreshers will be provided, with treatments available to book in advance.

The airline is to fly Bosing 767s fortnightly to Cancun from Gatwick, Glasgow, Manchester and Nottingham East Midlands with Cozumel served every two weeks from Manchester.

Passengers in the premium seats will be served with Champagne cocktails and fresh fruit before take off and have a choice of 12 films, nine hours of TV programmes and 12 audio channels. A range of 10 games will also be available on nine-inch widescreen monitors.

Those in economy – Star Class – will have smaller screens and a reduced selection of in-flight entertainment. But they can obtain the full range by paying a supplement of £5.

For those flying to Orlando, 150 cabin crew will be trained to give information on the Disney themeparks as well as selling entrance tickets.

The enhancements follow the carrier’s decision from April to remove a column of 58 setas to provide additional room, with seat pitch in economyof 33 inches and 36 inches in Star Class Premier. 

The airline’s managing director Chris Browne said: “Charter airline long-haul flights are no longer something to be endured. We believe this takes us out of the traditional charter market in terms of customer service and product offering. We are now coampring ourselves to the scheduled airlines and in many cases we believe we are better.”
