Kang Pacific is still on the drawing board. The process of getting a GCAA AOC is nowhere near completion and the start-up is, according to the rumours network, set to March sometimes. And then as a wet lease with equippment from Indonesia, I believe.
Is this another UAE dreamer like RAK Airways? Probably. the only difference is the funding in RAK seems endless. Kang Pacific will have to prove the same ability to produce enough funds. To prove a better operation than in RAK should not be difficult, but then they have to put some professionals behind the desks.
Mr. Kang, in order not to be a permanent thread on pprune, do yourself and your new airline a favour and learn from the mistakes in RAK.

What happened to this projected new airline out of Fujeirah? What happened to Paul Kang, the mentor of such project?
The airline is the brainchild of Paul Kang, an Indian businessman who previously owned companies involved in aviation catering as well as supplying to duty free shops in the UK and Fujairah.

Anyone out there actually hired and flying there?
Thanks,

"Low Cost"? Gulf Air's prices are similar (as are probably M-Rats) - probably only a matter of what airline has the best route/prices for your particular needs.

Etihad cuts prices for Ramadan
They are all going low cost...
Etihad Airways has slashed many of its airfares by up to 50% for travel during Ramadan and the autumn period. The special promotion, which runs from September 1 to November 10, sees prices to popular destinations like London reduced by 52% to Dhs1,900 ($518). The period covering October 1 to 3 is excluded from the special offer. Outbound travel must be completed by October 10.

I have tried to get "promotional" fares from Etihad in the past, but the date I wanted was "no seats left available in that class". Funnily enough, so was the day before and two days after (I gave up checking at that point!) **
Dhs 1,900 is a 53% reduction to LON? Then their "normal" fare is around Dhs 4,000? I can always get a GF flight, even at short notice, for between about 3,200 and 3,700 depending on departure airport. I'll keep building (albeit slowly
) my GF FF points.
**Edited to add - even trying well (over a month) in advance
