SkyWise (Johannesburg O.R. Tambo) will resume operations by the end of the year airline co-chair, Javed Malik, has said.

In an interview with BusinessDay, Malik said a local investor had been found and brought on-board with operational relaunch plans to be outlined later on in July.

The LCC suspended operations in December last year after it failed to settle airport servicing charges owed to among others, the Airports Company South Africa (ACSA).
