Estonian Air still has no solution for excess planes

Juhan Tere, BC, Tallinn, 12.12.2012.Print version
The new manager of Estonian state-owned carrier Estonian Air, Jan Palmér, was supposed to compile a plan on what to do with excess planes of the company by the first week of December 2012, but now that has been postponed till next year, LETA/Postimees Online reports.

In an interview in November, Palmér noted that the amount of money the state would have to invest in the company depends on the fate of the planes. The action plan on the plans was to be completed by last week.

 

Estonian Air PR manager Ilona Eskelinen said on Tuesday that there isn’t any action plan yet. "It is not yet known how and at what conditions we can take our fleet to the desired size. Negotiations are under way," she said.

 

The company has ten planes but it only needs five for the new strategy of flying only to its traditional destinations. Eskelinen said that the decisions regarding the fate of the planes will be postponed till next year.
