VANCOUVER (CP) - It's all systems go for Oasis Hong Kong Airlines.

The Canadian Transportation Agency has granted it a licence to begin flying passengers between Hong Kong and Vancouver starting in late June, according to a statement from the company.

The approval process for the airline, launched in October, is now complete, said chief executive officer Stephen Miller.

"Earlier this year an exemption was granted by the Canada Transportation Act to allow us to commence promotion of the route and ticket sales in Canada," Miller said.

"The (Transportation) Agency has now fully completed its review of the application and is fully satisfied that Oasis has complied with all necessary requirements," he said.

"That means we can start with six flights a week from June 28 this year."

Oasis Hong Kong Airlines offers full-service, low-fare, long-haul travel, including two complimentary hot meals on-board with a choice of Asian or Western style food. All seats have personal seat-back TVs.

Tickets can be booked online at www.oasishongkong.com, through Oasis's customer service centre at 1-888-983-0808, and through travel agents.
