Silverjets possible purchase of Boeing and Airbus
Published: 29/05/08
Silverjet have decided after discussions to invest in a Boeing or Airbus aircraft after the Billionaire Reuben Brothers agreed to invest in the company. After this investment has been given to them, Silverjet need to make the right decision how to invest this money into the Silverjet Airline.
The best option so far is to invest in a new aircraft in addition to the three Boeing 767s they already have in their fleet which supply business class only flights to London, Dubai and New York.
The choice Silverjet have to make is whether to purchase a Boeing 787 Dreamliner or its rival Airbus 350. Chief executive officer Lawrence Hunt has stated in an interview that Silverjet will also be looking at the older Airbus A330 or the other option is to stick with Boeing and add another to its fleet of three already.
