Four Boeing 737 MAX aircraft were grounded on Saturday after what Flair called a 'commercial dispute' with Airborne Capital From alicjawithaj
Flair Airlines CEO Stephen Jones said the airline may have to trim its schedule after four of its aircrafts were seized on the weekend.
"We've come in and upset the cosy duopoly and as a consequence people want us out of business. And we do believe that there were negotiations going on behind the scenes between one of the majors and the lessor to hurt Flair by them offering probably above-market rates for the aircraft we’ve been leasing," Jones said. He did not specify which major airline he believed was negotiating with Flair's lessor, nor did he offer any details to support the claim.
"So it wasn't a big amount. We didn't expect this action and as a consequence, we didn't have any aircraft in backup," Jones said. "There was no reason to, from our perspective."
