“Ocean Sky is a fresh and exciting business
with the potential to become the coolest air charter brand in Europe,”
says Clouder. “My challenge is to intensify the business development process of
an already successful operation, fine-tuning our activities and readying
ourselves for the coming market upturn.”

“In only a few years of operation, Ocean Sky
has earned the respect of customers and competitors, making this a very
exciting time to join the business. With the investments Ocean Sky has been
making, we have the fundamentals in place to attract many more charter
customers and develop lasting relationships with them.”

She joins with a superb track record of achieving growth, even in the face of
recession, and her leadership will enable us to expand our markets and further
strengthen the Ocean Sky brand

“As a group, Ocean Sky is investing
significantly in developing world-class services for every business aviation need. 
Aircraft charter is a key part of this strategy and, with our growing senior
team, we are well-positioned to capitalise on growth opportunities in Europe and beyond.”
