Aug 14, 2017 (newstodate): The Estonian capacity provider Regional Jet has now started operations for SAS.
Regional Jet will be operating four ATR72-600 aircraft for SAS, with the first airrcraft starting flights for SAS on August 13, 2017, the second aircraft will be put into operation on August 16, the third aircraft will join in Mid-September, with the fourth and last to enter service for SAS from October 2017.
Regional Jet came off to a troubled start, however, as the first flight to Billund on August 13 required an unplanned change of aircraft also generating delays during the rest of the day.
The agreement with Regional Jet spans six years but can be terminated after three.
Regional Jet is now 49 percent owned by the Polish carrier LOT, and has so far been provider of CRJ 700/900 aircraft capacity for the Estonian carrier Nordica.
