Strategic wants Ozjet rights to operate Bali services
Wednesday, 7 October 2009
After acquiring Ozjet's operations in late June, Strategic Airlines now wants all of the former carrier's air rights to Bali transferred into its name and has last week applied for government approval.
Strategic Airlines has indicated to Australian aviation officials that it wants to start operating services to Bali, Indonesia from Brisbane as soon as the 6th of December this year with a once weekly service.
A second weekly Brisbane - Denpasar service would be introduced from the 30th of June, 2010, Strategic says.
"Strategic Aviation Group Pty Ltd recently acquired OzJet Airlines Pty Ltd ("Ozjetl/) from the Administrator," says Strategic in its submission. "Strategic intends to operate the air service between Brisbane and Denpasar and is seeking the transfer of capacity of 408 seats."
"Strategic plans to operate an Airbus 330 aircraft between Brisbane and Denpasar twice weekly. This aircraft has a capacity of 229 seats and if operated twice weekly, represents 458 seats per week. Therefore we are seeking an additional 50 seats per week," it adds.
Strategic Airlines was awarded its Australian Air Operator's Certificate on the 19th of September 2009.
