OASIS HONG KONG AIRLINES.......
Oasis Hong Kong Airlines Limited was a long-haul low-cost airline based in Hong Kong. It operated scheduled services to London Gatwick Airport and Vancouver International Airport from its hub, Hong Kong International Airport. Oasis Hong Kong Airlines was founded by Rev. Raymond C. Lee, and his wife, Priscilla H. Lee in February 2005. On 9 April 2008 Oasis Hong Kong announced that it had ceased operations.

PHUKET AIR........
The airline was established in 1999 and started operations on December 19, 2001 with two Boeing 737-200 aircraft bought from Garuda Indonesia. Under strain from a downturn in the tourism industry after the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, and struggles to maintain its fleet of ageing aircraft, Phuket Airlines was plagued by poor service and safety concerns. Also the EU blacklisted the airline, banning it from flying to Europe. Domestic services ceased on 12 September 2005. In October 2007, Phuket Airlines resumed operations and provided 3 B747-200/300 aircraft to Saudi Arabian Airlines on a short term ACMI/wet lease contract for the Hajj charters.

GARUDA INDONESIA.....
January 26, 1949, is generally recognized as the airline's founding date, at which time the airline was known as "Garuda Indonesian Airways." In June 2007, the EU banned Garuda Indonesia, along with all other Indonesian airlines, from flying into any European countries. On 14.November 2008 the ban was extended.

EXCEL/TRAVEL CITY DIRECT.......
Travel City Direct was the trading name of the Really Great Holiday Company PLC, a British holiday company based in Crawley (close to London Gatwick Airport), specialising in holidays to the United States. Travel City Direct chartered flights from XL Airways. On 12 September 2008 the XL Leisure Group which owns Travel City Direct (including the Really Great Holiday Company) released a statement on their website that they had filed for administration.
