Strategic Acquires Ozjet Airlines

29 June 2009

Strategic have announced today the purchase of Ozjet Airlines from administration.

Strategic gained the support of Ozjet staff and creditors on Wednesday last week, to purchase the company.

"We are extremely pleased to announce the purchase of Ozjet Airlines. It is a great outcome when you are able to not only ensure the payment of entitlements to staff, but also retain some of the existing employee base for future company operations. We are also thankful to the creditors who have supported our efforts in negotiation over the last few weeks" said Mr Michael James, Executive Director of Strategic.

It is intended that the change in ownership will have very little impact on the existing operations of the airline. Strategic looks forward to introducing an A320 aircraft to the Perth market on the Derby route by the end of September, in place of the currently chartered Fokker 100.

Mr James said, "We are very appreciative of the patience that many Ozjet customers and supporters have shown over this difficult time. They can now be assured that the services Ozjet has provided to date on the Perth to Derby route will continue to function as normal."
