Etihad, Airberlin outline FlyNiki’s future

Etihad Aviation Group and Airberlin have confirmed the sale of Austrian subsidiary FlyNiki. The two companies said the sale will proceed at an agreed-upon time and in a manner compliant with EU regulations. Until the sale is completed, FlyNiki will continue to operate as a separate business unit within the Airberlin group with a focus on short- and medium-haul leisure destinations. “The FlyNiki flight schedule for winter 2017 has been published and all bookings remain valid,” a spokesperson confirmed. In Dec 2016, Airberlin said it had reached an agreement with Etihad Investment for the sale of the shares it indirectly held in NIK Luftfahrt. <br/>
