CotaiJet Macau - Hong Ferry Service to Resume Service

Travel News Asia Latest Travel News Friday, 18 January  2008

 The Macau Intermediate Court has removed an interim injunction that had suspended the Las Vegas Sands Corps entitlement to operate a ferry service between Hong Kong and Macau.

The CotaiJet service had been operating for just over a week and was offering services between Hong Kongs Macau Ferry Terminal at Shun Tak Centre and Macaus newly opened Taipa Temporary Ferry Terminal when it was suspended in mid-December.

The plaintiff in the case had sued the Macau SAR Government seeking a review of the governments decision to grant LVS the right to operate a ferry service. That legal action suspended the effect of governments decision, which had the consequence of suspending LVSs ferry service until further determination of the merits of the claim.

As we expected, the court acted in an expeditious and prudent manner to consider the merits of the claim, and decided that the injunction should be removed. We are already in the process of returning CotaiJet service to operation, said Stephen Weaver, president of Asia, Las Vegas Sands Corp.
