BlueSky Asia

Liquidation

As of December 31, 2023, BlueSky Asia was liquidated. The reason for this was that the high costs of remaining competitive were no longer affordable. However, flight utilization continued to fall short of expectations despite correspondingly high ticket prices. As a result, the BlueSky Holding Group was forced to close the airline while it was still in the black in order to avoid possible bankruptcy.
The remaining proceeds have already been used to found another airline and a generous takeover or severance offer was made to all employees. It is with great pleasure that we can announce that around 85% of the employees have agreed to a takeover and have been transferred to the new and existing airlines. In some cases without having to change location. The entire BlueSky Holding Group would like to thank its employees for their trust and loyalty, especially in times like these.
