MAT soon to become a Jat Airways subsidiary

Serbia’s Jat Airways and Macedonia’s MAT have confirmed, in a joint statement, that the Serbian national carrier will buy a stake in the Macedonian carrier which has recently been struggling with debt and bans. Within 30 days a work group will determine whether Jat Airways will become a majority shareholder of the Macedonian carrier or whether it will have a 49% stake in the airline instead.
