Low cost airline Kiwijet's launch delayed
New 2:10PM Tuesday February 26, 2008
A low-cost airline planning to service eight New Zealand cities has delayed its planned start-up date for a year.
Kiwijet was aiming to begin services later this year, but Chief Executive Patrick Weil says after a due diligence process, it has been decided to postpone the launch date until next February.
He says the report highlighted the need for Kiwijet to form an alliance with a trans-Tasman partner airline, to provide feeder traffic to and from the main trunk routes.
The airline was intending running services late in the evening which would restrict passengers to hand luggage only. This would leave the aircraft hold available for freight, parcels and mail.
Mr Weil says his company is currently in confidential talks with an Australian carrier which wants the launch date postponed so timetables can be coordinated.
