Jan 12, 2018 (newstodate): The Lithuanian ACMI and charter carrier GetJet Airlines is still awaiting the delivery of first of two Airbus A320 aircraft.
The carrier earlier expected the first aircraft to join the fleet before the end of 2017, with the second to follow shortly after the new year, but the process is slightly delayed.
-It is really only about small issues like finishing the paint job and some remaining paper work on the first delivery, and we expect both aircraft to be on our AOC and in the fleet by March 2018, says Benas Laurinaitis, GetJet Airlines CEO.
-In any case they will be ready in time for the coming summer season. Airbus A320 is a popular aircraft and we are deep into negotiations with customers over this new capacity.
-As for our other aircraft, four Boeing 737-400 and two Boeing 737-300 aircraft, are already fully covered in 2018, boding well for our sustained expansion and development after a most successful year in 2017.
-Any day now, we expect also receive the final IOSA certificate after having fully responded to the last remaining 17 points in the final audit. This opens up for new ACMI business with airlines.
-The market is brisk, there is a strong demand for aircraft capacity and we are thus rather confident of entering 2018 in good shape and with high ambitions for another good year, says Mr Laurinaitis.
