“SkyEurope
is celebrating 6th anniversary of its first flight by bringing
love in the air together with another great experience for
our passengers. With our KISS EUROPE project we are sending
out clear message that we love to carry our passengers and
after today’s world record we can definitely say our passengers
love to fly with SkyEurope,” says Steven Greenway, Chief Commercial
Officer of SkyEurope.
Most kisses were counted on the flights to UK,
France, Netherlands and Italy. Kissing on board was popular
also on domestic and short sector routes such as Vienna –
Innsbruck, Bratislava – Košice and Bratislava – Prague since
the very first flight departure at 6:20 in the morning.
“KISS EUROPE was very warmly accepted by passengers.
People of all ages had a lot of fun on board. Not only couples
in love were kissing, we also had parents kissing their children
and many friendly kisses have been exchanged for free tickets
all over European airspace today. SkyEurope
made flying simply as easy as a kiss,” says Tomáš Kika, SkyEurope’s
Head Of Communications.
No other airline has ever attempted to create
a world record in kissing in European airspace before.
