Reshuffle of shares in Air Polonia prior to takeoff
Chem Trans Logistic has sold its stake of 75% in Air Polonia to three private entrepreneurs. The new owners are Jan Szczepkowski, the president of the carrier, who controls a 25% stake, Tomasz Sudoł, the president of Dream Air, a Wrocław-based cheap flights airline, and Mirosław Szeleziński, the president of Bombardier. The president of the renewed Air Polonia is Tomasz Sudoł, while the deputy president is Jan Litwiński, the former president of LOT. "Air Polonia has received a concession to fly between Warsaw-Cologne, Katowice-Cologne and Warsaw-London," said Katarzyna Krasnodębska, the spokeswoman for the Civil Aviation Office. The airline currently owns two Boeing 737-400s, but plans to increase the size of its fleet. Flights from Warsaw to London will commence at the beginning of December. Tickets will be available through the Internet and a call center. (Puls Biznesu, p. 15) A.K.
