Solomon Airlines suspends operations

Solomon Airlines (Solomons) (Honiara) suspended all domestic and international airline operations on June 7, 2016 over a dispute for promised funding from the Solomon Islands government. CEO Ron Sum Sum said millions of dollars in unpaid government payments had seriously compromised safe airline operations.

The government hopes to reach an agreement with the ailing airline and resume critical operations for the island nation.
