StockMarketWire.com - Budget airline easyJet has been told that founder Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou is setting up a new airline which will be branded 'Fastjet'.

easyJet says it has a number of rights under its agreements with Sir Stelios and easyGroup IP Licensing Ltd, a subsidiary of easyGroup Holdings Limited.

And it says it will take necessary action to protect those rights if they are infringed by Fastjet, Sir Stelios or any company controlled by him.

easyJet says Sir Stelios alleges that easyJet has breached the terms of the binding comfort letter between him and easyJet of 10 October 2010 and that that letter is no longer in force.

easyJet emphatically rejects these claims. easyJet says it continues to seek constructive dialogue with easyGroup and Sir Stelios.

Τελικά η FastJet θα είναι low cost εταιρεία στο μοντέλο της EasyJet αλλά θα δραστηριοποιηθεί στην Αφρική! Στο http://www.fastjet.com έχουν αρχίσει να δίνουν πληροφορίες σιγά σιγά για το project.

Προχωράει το θέμα...

The planned Fastjet carrier will be developed on the existing Lonrho Aviation platform under the Fly540 brand, which carried more than 525,000 passengers in the 15 months to the end of December 2011.
...
It will maintain Lonrho's four year programme of developing operational hubs in East, West and South West Africa with strategic hubs in Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana and Angola, “providing an unparalleled route network and operating platform to launch across Africa”.

Ο κύριος Στέλιος κάνει προσλήψεις στην Fastjet! Λεπτομέριες θα γράψω στο ανάλογο θέμα αλλά προφανώς αυτό δείχνει οτι το εγχείρημα σιγά σιγά παίρνει σάρκα και οστά!

Και απ' ότι φαίνεται από τα πρώτα νούμερα τα πρώτα δρομολόγια θα είναι γεμάτα:

fastjet, the first pan African low-cost carrier, today announces that ahead of flight operations scheduled for next week, the airline’s first branded Airbus A319 has arrived at its base in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Full approval to operate the aircraft has been granted to fastjet by the Tanzanian Civil Aviation Authority (TCAA).

Two more fastjet-branded A319s are planned to be en route early next week, to be in Dar es Salaam in time for the airline’s first flight, scheduled for Thursday 29th November. fastjet’s team of 35 pilots, 65 cabin crew and 7 maintenance specialists are already on the ground actively preparing for launch. In a little over a week since tickets went on sale, fastjet has already taken over 8000 bookings on the first two routes; enough to fill over 60 A319s.

The fastjet.com web site received over 20,000 hits in [its first] 4 days and the mobile site is now live. Commenting on the significant progress, fastjet chairman David Lenigas said: “As expected, plans for fastjet’s official launch of operations are moving ahead right on schedule and we are delighted with the level of interest so far. Demand for seats is high and we are in great shape to start flying next week. We are delighted to have such a solid foundation to build upon.”
