Aug 16, 2016 (newstodate): Georgia will soon see the formation of a new carrier with high ambitions and a firm capital basis provided by Chinese investors.
The Chinese private corporation Hualing Group, founded in 1988 in Urumqi, in China's Xinjiang province, is already deep into Georgia with investments in banks, hotels and the Kutaisi Hualing Free Industrial Zone.
New on the agenda is the set up of a new Georgian airline to be named My Ways Airlines and staffed with Georgian and internationally recruited employees.
The carrier will have a fleet of Boeing 737 NG aircraft for regional and medium-haul operations as well as Boeing 777 aircraft for future long-haul international flights to destinations in Asia and the USA.
On the near-term plan is the opening of flights from Georgia to seven or eight destinations in Europe, the region as well as in China.
With work completed in the technical issues in setting up the carrier, work is now focusing on working out the business plan and strategy, and hopes are to get airborne on the fist commercial flight by December 2016.
