Shares in business class airline Silverjet were suspended this morning as it admitted that an urgently needed loan has not materialised, leaving it dangerously low on cash.

Og jeg tror vi kan sette på Queen idag også

"Silverjet suspends all flights from May 30th".....det var vel det....

Og dette står på hjemmesidene deres

To our dear customers,

When our inaugural flight took off in January 2007, we pledged to change the face of air travel. Your appreciation of our unique values and your belief in our product has allowed us to achieve this.

Your belief in us was shared by our investors - but regrettably, due to unforeseen circumstances, they were unable to unlock the finance that we needed. As a result, we are very sad to announce that from 30 May 2008, we will cease operations and we are no longer able to honour flight reservations.

We extend our sincerest apologies to those of you who have travel plans with Silverjet in the future and at present. You are advised to seek alternative travel arrangements with other carriers, and contact your credit card company or travel agent directly for information on obtaining refunds.

We are working actively with new investors who are prepared to inject new funds so we can recommence operations. If we are able to achieve this, we will make an announcement as soon as possible and we hope to be able to bring you our very 'sivilised' flying experience again.

Thank you for your support - it has meant everything.

Yours sincerely,




Lawrence Hunt, CEO

Anotherone bites the dust....
...og dermed blir det mere å hente for (BA) Open Skies!

Det var moro så lenge det varte - med ikke mindre enn fire all-business airlines over Atlanterhavet...

Dette var jo heller ikke akkurat noe sjokk da... Snarere et spørsmål om når og ikke om...
