We deny the allegations and welcome the opportunity to put our case before the Competition Tribunal so that the matter can be put to rest. We are confident our conduct has been and remains, in full compliance with competition rules and the law,” said Airlink CEO and managing director, Rodger Foster.
In the meantime Airlink remains committed to providing the vital air services linking Mthtatha with Johannesburg, which enable and promote trade, travel, tourism, economic growth, and development in the Walter Sisulu District of the Eastern Cape Province,” concluded Foster.
