St. Kitts and Nevis would like to see REDjet return to the skies
Recently REDjet officials met with Guyana’s ministers of Tourism, Industry and Commerce and Works to seek the country’s financial assistance in getting the carrier back in the Caribbean skies, however no definite position has been met.
The airline is also seeking outside investors, including from Venezuela.
REDjet suspended its operations early last month due to financial troubles, after it complained that it could not compete with other airlines that are receiving government subsidy, including the state-owned Trinidad Carrier Caribbean Airlines, which is receiving hefty fuel subsidy from the T&T government.
Trinidad is the only Caribbean country that revoked REDjet’s licence after the airline announced it was suspending operations.
However the Guyana government, one of the strong supporters of the airline’s entry to the regional market, said it has no intentions of suspended or revoke the licence.
