Interjet Denies That it’s in Technical Bankruptcy

IT IS NOT TRUE THAT INTERJET IS IN TECHNICAL BANKRUPTCY

  • The handling of the information published by Bloomberg is irresponsible.
  • The news agency made a misinterpretation of the judicial review filed by Interjet in its legal dispute with the Internal Revenue Service of Mexico.

Mexico City, August 30, 2019.- Interjet categorically denies that it is bankrupt as published by the Bloomberg news site. The news agency made a misinterpretation of the constitutional claim filed by the airline in the dispute that it holds with the Internal Revenue Service of Mexico (SAT).

Bloomberg had access to a file that by law is not supposed to be public. In a judicial dispute, the only persons entitled to consult the records are those authorized by the parties involved in the trial.

At no time, the company has recognized the existence of a technical bankruptcy as this media outlet states.

It should be noted that bankruptcy can only be declared by court order, and cannot be self-imposed by the debtor or any other entity. It’s a legal process through which the insolvency of a company has to be proved. This is not the case of the current situation of Interjet because the company continues paying its debts.

Bankruptcy cannot be declared by a company or by an individual, and this determination corresponds to a court.

Interjet reserves its right to pursue any available legal actions against Bloomberg.

For most of the airlines 100+ destinations the A320 restyling will bring the upgraded JetBlue experience to their city for the first time.

A major focus of the restyling is keeping customers connected throughout their flight, including a new inflight entertainment system, high-definition seatback televisions, in-seat power outlets with USB ports and continued free gate-to-gate Fly-Fi high-speed internet with an expanded coverage area – including throughout the Caribbean and Latin America where Fly-Fi had not been available until now.

Completing The 2018 Phase

The first phase of JetBlue’s A320 interior cabin restyle began in spring 2018 and modernized the airline’s so-called “classic interiors” with products that matched those found on the airline’s newer A321 aircraft – features such as more modern seats and larger seatback TVs. More than a dozen A320 aircraft have been restyled with these products so far and several more are scheduled for completion in the coming weeks. This spring the restyling will fully transition to the 2019 version of onboard products for all aircraft going forward.
