OUR STORY
We have come a long way since our story began; here is a very brief time line of our
story so far:
2007 flyLAL charters was established;
2009 SPA in Estonia (EE) and Poland (PL) were established;
2010 flyLAL charters was rebranded to Small Planet Airlines;
2010 SPA in Italy (IT) was established;
2011 SPA EE was sold and left the group;
2013 SPA IT was sold and left the group;
2013 spring SPA left Avia Solutions Group;
2014 Small Planet Group was established;
2015 SPA Thailand is established.
Today we have three main offices in Vilnius, Warsaw and Bangkok. As well as three different AOCs issued by Lithuanian, Polish and Thai authorities. Summer is our top season
and in order to avoid the seasonality we have launched Small Planet Airlines Thailand. We
are the first airline in the world to have AOCs in different continents and move its fleet
between them while flying under the same brand. Our fleet has been growing year on year
as do our ambitions. We do not want to stop!
During 2007-2013 Small Planet Airlines was a member of Avia Solutions Group. SPA
left Avia Solution Group in Spring 2013. Vytautas Kaikaris and Andrius Staniulis became
the main shareholders of SPA LT and SPA PL. Since then SPA is independent of any
group and were very proud of it! Moreover, the holding company Small Planet Group
was established in 2014. It was to take ownership of the Small Planet Airlines of Lithuania and Poland, along with other aviation related investments.
The secret of Small Planet Airlines success is not only the best
prices and flexibility, but also our ambition to start customers
holiday right here: on board our flights. Our colorful brand represents our nature and the atmosphere we create. Small Planet
Airlines has an aim to be a different leisure airline driven by a
simple and powerful question. It is rarely asked in boardrooms of
the airline companies: a Why not? question. Why? is a bad
question. Why not? is a great question. A question that opens
up the airline business to change and bit of fun. After all, this world has got enough of
boring airlines already, hasnt it?

NOT?

Fleet
Our fleet size almost doubles every two years. Such growth trend is called Moores law and
is usually used to describe the growth of IT companies. In the airline business, or in fact
any other industries except for IT, the growth of this rate is rarely observed. But not for
Small Planet Airlines our four years of history show a steep growth trend.
Boeing 737-300
Airbus A320
The A320 is Airbus
best-selling
single-aisle
aircraft, which continues
to set industry standards
for comfort and operating economy on short- to
medium-haul routes. The
A320s advanced technology includes the extensive
use of weight-saving composites, lower maintenance
costs, along with Airbus flyby-wire flight controls. The
A320s right-sized fuselage
is seven inches wider than
its competitors, enhancing
comfort for passengers.

Administration and Human Resources Department includes three different teams and we
all have one common target: to attract and develop the right people by applying the best
human resources practices. We shall create a Loveable Place to Work where:
Values are what we value. There are 4 real values and here are some hints to remember:
Dream up new things;
Work with heart, but operate with head;
Act in SPA best interests;
Enjoy what you do.
A+ colleagues surround you. It means that you are surrounded by top performers the one who has excellent soft skills + achieves individual goals THE ONE WHO DOES
GREAT WORK;
Fair salary is paid. Salary that you would get elsewhere in the same market for the same
work done;
Company plans are shared. Every managers door is always open for questions to be
answered. You can even ask your managers for meetings to be held if you do not have
any be proactive.
Development & career opportunities exist. We believe that high performance people
are self improving by experience, observation, reading and discussing. We do not believe
in formal career planning: we want people to manage their careers, not the company.
However we never forget our A+ performers. Together we look to find work that our A+
performers would love to do this is how we provide interesting career progression.
18
Freedom vs control. We give freedom to our A+ employees: flexible working hours, full
freedom prioritizing their works and choosing what and when to do it. However it is more
about administration employees. We believe that our crews have inbuilt punctuality and
control.
It is fun to work in. This feeling is everywhere at all times and there are no doubts about
it. And thats it.
And the most important
Administration and HR department team is located in Vilnius and Warsaw offices in order to support the smooth functioning of the Company core Business operation and is
responsible for a number of activities, including employee selection & recruitment, all
administrative matters such as:
Employment agreements and cooperation with different Agencies;
Work regulations;
Employee ID cards;
Employment certificates;
Holiday registration (after approval from Planning Division);
Uniforms.

Jeans may be worn; however they must be smart, clean and not have any rips or tears.
UNIFORM
First impressions are very important and give customers confidence in Small Planet
Airlines as an airline. Your mood and your uniform create an overall appearance, which
represents our brand and is a huge part of Small Planet Airlines identity. The uniform
presents the image of our company and therefore the highest standard of personal
appearance is required at all times.

tion during duty or split duty hours is considered as gross misconduct and will lead to a
dismissal.
The use of intoxicants, including alcoholic drinks by any person while on duty, or in the
case of flight crew members, within 8 hours prior to duty, is prohibited.
Conduct in uniform
When being out of base (on duty travel) local laws of alcohol consumption must be strictly
followed, as breaking any laws (in public places or in hotel rooms) will have severe consequences for the person involved and for the company.
It is equally important to meet the uniform requirements whenever you are carrying
out your duties as it is to know how to behave in public while representing Small Planet
Airlines.
The removal of alcoholic drinks or any other drinks from the bar is strictly prohibited and
is considered as theft. This includes the practice of give away / goody bags to anybody
travelling onboard the aircraft.
Desirable behaviour:
No alcohol or containers for alcohol may be taken into the flight deck
at any time. Any Duty Free alcohol or Duty Paid alcohol containers purchased by crew members must have their original seal and receipt intact.
- All staff are required to report for duty, dressed correctly with uniform
in good repair, clean and worn to company standard. Uniform must be
worn to the guidelines at all times, including the crew room.
When visiting different countries whilst away from base, all crew must
ensure they are aware of the age restrictions for consuming alcohol.
- All staff must behave in a calm and confident fashion when dealing
with the general public.
The law must be strictly adhered to, as breaking any laws in place will
have severe consequences from both the country involved and Small
Planet Airlines.
Crew should also be aware that within their hotel room, if under age
crew are found to be drinking alcohol the person who has been allocated that particular room will be held responsible along with the underage
crew member.
43
By reading newspapers, magazines or books your focus has been drawn away from two
key areas of responsibilities. Due to the length of flights it is acceptable for crew whilst
on their break to read; however it must be pointed out that at all times whilst on the
aircraft the crew monitor safety regulations and Passenger welfare.
with fellow crew members are professional and do not encompass operational, flight safety or performance issues which may be overheard by revenue passengers.
Gambling
During your rest period onboard you are still visible to the passenger so must continue
to present yourselves in a professional conduct, this includes your uniform and outward
behavior.
Gambling while in uniform is strictly forbidden. This includes slot machines, arcade
areas and purchasing the lottery.
Posture
Uniform wearers must adopt good posture in public.
Slouching, crossing or folding arms, hands in pockets, leaning against
doorways, work tops, walls etc. must be avoided. When seated, staff
in uniform must not sprawl, hunch shoulders, rest feet on furniture or
other equipment.
Mobile Telephones
Mobile telephones are part of everyday life and we all depend on them
to some extent. However please remember that there are times when
your discretion will be needed.
Your mobile must be switched off during your pre-flight briefing &
post flight debrief as all your attention must be given to your colleagues. When taking telephone calls ensure you do not stand in or
near the briefing / debriefing area disturbing your colleagues who are
working.
You may use your mobile telephone as long as you observe all SEP
procedures (i.e. Refueling drill) and do not use your mobile when a
main engine is running or when passengers are onboard. You must
also ensure you are not neglecting your duties as a crew member. You
must switch off your mobile if requested by a SCC or a Flight Crew member.
In Flight Rest
Sitting In Cabin
Operating crew members must not sit in the cabin whilst passengers are onboard to
read, eat and talk to colleagues or to complete paperwork. This is considered unprofessional and is not acceptable behavior. It is acceptable for crewmembers to take a
break in the galley area with the curtains closed as long as you are mindful of passenger
requests and observant of safety.
You may only occupy a seat in the passenger cabin when in uniform if you are travelling
as a passenger. Whilst travelling as a passenger, you must ensure that conversations

- Passport
- Company ID Card
- Initial Attestation if applicable
- Medical Certificate
- High Visibility Jacket
- Pen
- Spare Tights for Females
- Emergency night stop kit including spare underwear/tights, tooth brush, tooth paste,

aircraft.
It is recommended that crew bag contents are kept to a minimum and only the above
items should be carried.
46
47
48
Narcotics and/or drugs - The use of narcotics that have not been prescribed by a medical
practitioner is expressly forbidden at any time. The above guidance also applies to sleep
inducing drugs.
Medication - Many medications may have adverse effects on the nervous system, which
may be more evident in flight than on the ground. As a general rule, if a crew member
finds it necessary to take, or has been prescribed some form of medication, his or her
fitness to fly must be suspect, and he or she should seek medical advice before continuing
with flying duties.
Many drugs lower operational efficiency and impair judgment and reaction time. Crew
members should be aware that many drugs, their dosage and use, while suitable for family members and passengers may be unsuitable for crew members.
Commonly prescribed drugs in the following classes may have prolonged effects on performance:
Antihistamines contained in some common cold cures, anti-motion sickness tablets
and medicines for the alleviation of allergic conditions.
Sleeping tablets or sedatives.
Tranquillizers.
Stimulants used to prevent drowsiness and to curb appetite.
Analgesics.
Antibiotic, cortisone, steroids.
49
This period will vary depending on individual circumstances but will usually be at least
24 hours. The dentist or anesthetist should be asked about this.
Immunization - Medical advice is to be sought concerning the period to be observed
before returning to flying duties following immunization. There are no requirements for
immunization for crew members operating within the European/ Mediterranean Region
on the routes that Small Planet Airlines operate. However, crew members may choose
to maintain inoculation against the following:
Hepatitis
Tetanus
Meningitis
Poliomyelitis
Typhoid or Paratyphoid
Blood donation - Recent blood donation is incompatible with flying. Cabin Crew members should not normally act as blood donors.
Deep sea diving - Crew members are warned of the dangers of mixing diving and flying. It is recommended that any diving involving the use of aqua-lungs is avoided for
24 hours prior to undertaking a flying duty.
Using a handkerchief
Meals - Sensible precautions should be taken to avoid the risk of food poisoning (e.g.
from shellfish of dubious freshness). Particularly when meals are taken, or uplifted,
during en route stops.
Applying make-up.
Pilots operating together should select different items from the menu to reduce the
possibility that both of them could become incapacitated. In flight the Commander and
First Officer must not take their meals at the same time. In hot climates particular care
should be taken with the following:
Fresh salads, uncooked vegetables or ice cream unless they are known to have been
hygienically prepared and handled.
Watermelon, thin skinned, over ripe or bruised
fruit, or fruit which has been left cut.
Fish, unless cooked shortly after being caught.
Raw or under-cooked meat or fish.
Dishes prepared with cream.
Ice should not be added to drinks unless it
is known to have been hygienically made and
handled.
Sleep and rest - Although the controls on flight
and duty periods are intended to ensure that
adequate opportunities are provided for crew
members to obtain rest and sleep, individuals
should ensure that proper advantage is taken of
such opportunities.
50
Fitness - No individual shall act as a member of the Cabin Crew of a Company aircraft if,
for any reason, his physical or mental condition is such that it could endanger the safety
of the aircraft or its occupants.
51
Crew must advise Crew Dispatch as soon as possible of any late crew members to reduce

INFO YOU
NEED TO
KNOW
Please ensure that you are familiar with
airline terminology, the phonetic alphabet,
airport codes, the 24 hour clock and SPA
aircraft BEFORE you attend the training
course.
GREENWICH
MEAN TIME
(GMT)
All places on the globe have a latitude
(their distance North or South of the
Equator) and a longitude (their distance
East or West of the Greenwich Meridian).
As Greenwich, England is zero degrees
longitude, time is measured from this
point and is defined as Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT).
GMT is used in the aviation industry. It
may also be referred to as Zulu Time (ZT)
or Universal Time Coordinated (UTC).
Time east of Greenwich is GMT plus (+)
hours
Time west of Greenwich is GMT minus
(-) hours

The time format used in aviation is the 24-hour clock, whereby time is recorded by
numbers only and not am and pm. This is also referred to as military time, army
time or railway time. Airlines use this in their flight schedules and rosters. The diagram
below gives an indication how to use the 24-hour clock.
The phonetic alphabet is a set of words used instead of alphabetic letters in radio communication. Each word stands for its initial letter and is used internationally by aircraft,
maritime units, amateur radio operators and the military. It is used in two-way radio
communications to help reduce the affects of noise, distorted audio and radio operator
accents.
For instance, some letters which can easily be confused are D and B. By using the
phonetic alphabet, Delta and Bravo, these are easily distinguished.
For example, when the Captain is calling the Air Traffic Control tower to identify the aircraft he will use the number on the tail e.g. A6 EAC, and pronounce it as Alpha Six Echo
Alpha Charlie
It is important that this Phonetic Alphabet is known.
Examples:
Before Midday
(Figures inside the clock face)
After Midday
(Figures in red outside the clock face)
1.00 am is 0100
3.00 pm is 1500
6.30 am is 0630
9.45 pm is 2145
