OzJet Services to Palmerston North

Ozjet announces with regret that due to recent merger talks which are nearing completion it is unable at this time to commence operations as envisaged on the 31st March 2008.

Ozjet’s CEO Willie O,Neill says “ The potential for Trans Tasman services and the opportunities that the Manawatu connection presented was first class and it regrettable that we can not move forward at this time “.

OzJet has worked closely with a number of key stakeholders in New Zealand including the Palmerston North International Airport company, Destination Manawatu and Palmerston North City Council and a number of other organisations. Planning for the new services was well advanced and there will be disappointment with this sudden change of plan which has been driven by events beyond the control of any one party.

All Passengers booked on OzJet services to and from Palmerston North will be fully refunded. OzJet regrets the disruption to these customers and the travel community in New Zealand that has supported their new service.
