Apr 10, 2006 (newstodate): The projected Russian nationwide air taxi company Dexter has secured the financing of its commercial launch.
IFC has decided to grant a USD15 mio loan to Dexter that will offer on-demand air taxi services between any points in Russia.
The Dexter project will be implemented by Air Transport Systems, the fleet owner based in Nizhniy Novgorod, and Moscow-based Air Management Group, the fleet operator.
Dexter will use IFC financing to acquire and operate a fleet of new Russian-made six-seat M101T aircraft.
By the end of the first phase of the project in 2008, Dexter is expected to have a fleet of 45 aircraft, eventually expanding to up to 200 aircraft.
The company plans to carry an estimated one million passengers a year between 300 regional towns through a combination of scheduled and on-demand flights.
Operations will begin with service to Moscow, Kazan, Nizhniy Novgorod, Samara, Saratov, Voronezh, Orel, Lipetsk, and Yaroslavl.
