Jan 31, 2012 (newstodate): Serbia is once again to confirm its dedication to the national carrier.
A group of Serb investors have reportedly teamed up to provide the financial basis for establishing a rejuvenated JAT Airways, free from the existing carrier's debts, but operating the existing JAT fleet of aircraft and employing the same staff as the existing JAT.
The new JAT Airways will be established before this summer, and after that orders will be placed for delivery of new aircraft from 2013, sources say.
The renewed attempt at rescuing the ailing carrier comes after yet another aborted effort to attract foreign capital through several tenders, the latest in 2011.
