Silesian Air seems to have got it right this time

At present the company has an option for eight Airbus320 planes and asked for permission to fly from Katowice to London, Rome and Paris. "Our business partner is Airbus," said Ireneusz Pawłowski from TSB Solutions. Barbara Kracht from Airbus has admitted that her company was negotiating terms with Silesian Air. According to unofficial information, the company will lease several planes, but it is still unknown how many. The catalogue price of an Airbus 320 is $59 million. "The license applications are now being analyzed," said Katarzyna Krasnodębska from the Civil Aviation Office (ULC). GetJet plans to use other domestic airports in the future, but this will be directly affected by demand. The company will open its call center today and will employ about 200 people by December. TSB Holding has acquired 51% stake in Silesian Air for zł. 550,000 in April 2003. (Puls Biznesu, p. 5) M.M.
