Med-View Airline on Wednesday refuted an online report about its operations, stressing that the report was laced with falsehood and misinformation.
Mr. Michael Ajigbotosho, Chief Operating Officer, Med-View Airline, said the four aircrafts in its fleet are wholly owned by Med-View Airline Plc and not leased as contained in the report.
“In setting the records straight, the aircraft being referred to were acquired at various time from Aercap, and not from Thai Airways,” the statement said
He said there was a lot of misinformation about the airline’s indebtedness to vendors, saying that anyone who wants to know the truth should reach out to the concerned agencies.
The statement said in an ongoing business, it is normal to have agreements with service providers to give line of credit, which is a standard industry practice.
According to the statement “The suspension of operations into some of our international routes has to do with our two aircraft- B767-300ER and B737-500 undergoing cabin reconfiguration and maintenance.
“They have nothing to do with threats or any debt burden.”
The statement also said as soon as the aircraft return to service, the airline will restore operations to those routes.
“We frown at “Copy and Paste Journalism” and we encourage those who want to reflect the truth to balance their reports by reaching out to us as well as appropriate agencies”, it added.
