Comair is placed in provisional liquidation and it has become of key importance for Comair to preserve its fleet for the benefit of creditors, according to its rescue practitioners.

All affected parties have until 26 July to provide the court with reasons why the provisional liquidation order should not be made a final order.Comair was placed in provisional liquidation on Tuesday due to not being able to meet its financial obligations anymore.

Kulula.com and local British Airways operator Comair was placed in provisional liquidation by the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg on Tuesday. Comair cannot pay aircraft storage, maintenance and insurance costs, so it cannot ensure the preservation of its fleet anymore. That is one of the reasons why its business rescue practitioners made an urgent high court application for its liquidation.

"The company does not have access to any further funding necessary to fund its operational costs and cannot meet any of its obligations towards its funding creditors and trade creditors." Comair resumed flying on 1 December 2020. In April 2021 it was delisted from the JSE. The delisting allowed the company to apply for funding of R100 million under the Covid-19 loan guarantee scheme put in place by the SA Reserve Bank and large commercial banks at the time.
