Following the announcement on Thursday 26th August 2010 in the High Court that Mr. Michael McAteer of Grant Thornton has been appointed as Interim Examiner to Comhfhorbairt (Gaillimh) trading as Aer Arann, the airline wishes to assure the public that all scheduled services will continue to operate as normal.

Aer Arann intends to operate normally during the period of examinership and intends to fly all Aer Arann services which includes the daily service between Ireland West Airport Knock and Dublin
No flights have been cancelled or are planned to be cancelled and reservations can continue to be made on www.aerarann.com. Aer Arann intends that there will be no impact on customer travel or bookings as a result of the move into examinership.

Following the High Court hearing on 8th September Aer Arann expects to remain in examinership for an initial period of up to 70 days. During that time the company will benefit from the protection of the Court from its creditors so that it can re-organise and re-structure the business.
Aer Arann and the Examiner will also use the time to negotiate with potential investors and a number of parties have expressed their interest in the airline.

Aer Arann would like to thank all of the airline’s loyal customers for their support to date and looks forward to continuing to serve them.
