NextJet (Stockholm Arlanda) has confirmed that its shareholders, which include Finnish energy company Oy Herrfors Ab, have held an extraordinary general meeting in which they agreed to recapitalize the loss-making carrier.

Last week, the Swedish Transport Agency (Transportstyrelsen) revoked NextJet's permanent AOC given concerns about the airline's finances. The license was subsequently replaced with a temporary three-month permit valid through mid-November.

According to an airline press release, the carrier will hold a share capital increase to the tune of SEK42.5 million (USD5.34 million). At the same time, two unspecified aircraft will be disposed of. In all, a total of SEK70 million (USD8.8 million) is expected to be raised.

"The new share issue means that NextJjet has taken the necessary measures to obtain its permanent operating license again," it said.
