"We would like to thank CASA, our staff involved in the programme and our project contractors for delivering these approvals within the timeframe allocated," he said.
"First commercial services are scheduled for 10th April and the previously announced wet lease services to be provided to Qantas will commence as scheduled on 25th May 2021 with three aircraft," he added.
