All business-class airline Maxjet declares bankruptcy
26 December 2007Maxjet, a two-year-old company that touted itself as the first low-fare business class airline, has declared bankruptcy due to rising fuel costs, its president said.
The US company said it had made a deal with competitor Eos Airlines “for seats on Eos’ scheduled all-Premium service to accommodate passengers awaiting a return flight between New York and London.”
It also vowed to provide hotel accommodations for affected travelers in London, New York, Las Vegas and Los Angeles through early January 2008.
