We thought they were out when they
shut down in May but business-class-only airline,
Silverjet might be back in the skies soon. Kingplace, an Irish off-the-shelf company backed by Geneva-based Heritage Cie,
has inked a deal with Silverjet's administrators, Begbies Traynor. Silverjet plans to relaunch flights to New York and Dubai from London as soon as possible. The company plans to take on all of the existing staff, honor Silverjet's existing customers' tickets and put planes back in service in a few weeks.

SilverJet Ticket Holders Deserve Refunds
If the revived SilverJet is going to honor existing tickets then they should offer a refund to anyone who desires it.
Many of us have booked flights with other airlines since SilverJet said they were not flying anymore. SilverJet broke the contract between us by ceasing operations and telling us to get refunds through ATOL or our credit card companies.
Since I have re-booked a July flight, I don't want or need the SilverJet tickets. I will be stuck with two sets of tickets (eight altogether) for the same trip. This is just not right. How can an airline force us to buy competitors tickets and then remove all possibilities of getting our money back?
We deserve refunds. Either SilverJet should give all of us refunds or shouldn’t honor the old tickets at all. At least then we can claim relief through other channels.
