Mar 09, 2016 (newstodate): The cat is out of the sack - the new brand name of what is today named Nordic Aviation, Estonia's new carrier, will be Nordica!
-We did plan to announce the brand name in April, but we were clearly overtaken by the media, says Erik Sakkov, the airline's CCO.
-We plan to have the first aircraft in our new livery ready by the start of this summer season, and after that they will appear one by one with our colors.
-In the fleet now are two CRJ700 and three CRJ900 on our own AOC, and they will be operating this summer alongside aircraft leased from our partners Adria Airways and bmi Regional continuing as of today to provide the necessary extra aircraft capacity. Then from this coming winter schedule we expect to operate only aircraft on our own AOC, says Mr Sakkov.
According to Mr Sakkov, the new carrier has performed above budgets and hopes are to reach profitability by 2018/19.
