The historic debts that the article refers to were, we believe, primarily incurred by the Fly540 operation in Kenya run by Mr Don Smith.
There is a distinct lack of clarity regarding the historic charges and we have been working with the TRA and TAA to understand where the liability sits. Where amounts have been agreed and liability ascertained, we have settled those amounts rapidly.
In its first few months of operation, fastjet has carried over 70,000 passengers, has dramatically lowered the cost of flying in Tanzania and has delivered a level of safety and performance never seen before in the country. We are determined to continue to grow, despite the attempts from various quarters, and to offer the people of Tanzania greater opportunity to fly at an affordable cost.
