White Eagle Aviation S.A. (WEA), a Polish private airline, is introducing its first passenger Boeing 737.

Named Jurata, the plane holds 167 passengers and has a self-loading system, which shortens the time during stops at airports. WEA's Boeing will carry passengers to places such as Rhodes, Greece and Faro, Portugal due to its ability to land on short runways. The plane will also make five extra flights to Rome and Barcelona. WEA was started in 1992 when Zbigniew Niemczycki became the first person to buy a private plane in Poland. Currently the company employs 170 people and uses 15 planes and two helicopters. It offers cargo and charter passenger services and keeps its main base at Okecie Airport in Warsaw. (Prawo i Gospodarka, page 3) M.M.
