Blue Air, owned by businessman Nelu Iordache, who is currently awaiting trial on charges of money laundering involving his construction company Romstrade, received nine offers by the April 20 deadline.
The company said offers came in from Belgium, Italy, Romania, Switzerland, Greece, the United Arab Emirates and other countries in Asia.
“Together with our creditors, we plan to set the deadline for final bids for May 20,” the airliner said in a statement.
Blue Air currently has a fleet of 8 planes and flies to 30 European destinations. The company employs around 400 people.
Blue Air and construction company Romstrade, which is currently insolvent, are the largest companies controlled by Iordache, who has been placed under preventive arrest for embezzling RON25 million from EU funds allotted for the construction of a highway.
