Indian airline Jet Airways suffered another setback. The Civil Aviation Authority has withdrawn certification from the carrier's training facility. According to local reports, the delays in the restart are said to have played a major role in this decision.
“The Competent Authority has revoked the accreditation of Jet Airways' two ASTIs in Gurugram and Mumbai. The airline can apply for re-certification of its ASTI once it is ready for inspection under Annex A of NCASTP.
This means that Jet Airways, which actually wanted to be back in the air for a long time, is initially without its own training and education company. The background to the decision is that there is still no date for the transfer of ownership to the bidding consortium that bought the carrier out of insolvency. There are various problems at the moment. For example are also old wage settlements of employees unresolved.
Jet Airways has already postponed the announced restart several times. It is now considered extremely unlikely that you can still take off this year. The further development is currently completely open. Recently in Liechtenstein eA raid took place at a company in the bidding consortium.
