Jan 25, 2017 (newstodate): At midnight November 30, 2016, Aviator UK ceased operations at four UK airports London Gatwick, Newcastle, Birmingham and Edinburgh.
The pull-out from the UK market, earlier heralded as a major break-through under Aviator's former strategy to become no less than "a global leader in aviation services", marked the end of a highly turbulent and little transparent period that saw several members of Aviator's original top management core leaving the company while a new Aviator UK Managing Director was named as late as August 2016 when the earlier holder of the office was abruptly fired.
Aviator will now, it said, focus on its handling activities at 16 stations the Nordic Region.
And since the end of 2016, little, or rather nothing, has been heard publicly from Aviator.
-We are currently in a consolidation phase following new funding and withdrawal from the UK. Our former UK companies have been put into voluntary liquidation and there are still ongoing issues in relation to finalizing this process, writes Jo Alex Tanem, Aviator CEO since March 2016, in a mail to newstodate.
Aviator UK is now only operating at Manchester Airport where its handling business was started by April 1, 2014.
