Oasis Hong Kong Airlines Limited (traditional Chinese: 甘泉香港航空有限公司) is a now-defunct long-haul low-cost airline that was based in Hong Kong. It operated scheduled services to London Gatwick Airport and Vancouver International Airport from its hub, Hong Kong International Airport.
Oasis was one of a growing number of long-haul passenger airlines, such as Zoom Airlines, to adopt a budget airline model pioneered by the now defunct Laker Airways Skytrain service in the 1970s. Oasis offered non-stop service from Hong Kong to London, and began a service to Vancouver on June 28, 2007. The airline was voted "World’s Leading New Airline" at the Annual World Travel Awards 2007.
Much of the original success of Oasis Hong Kong was due to the airline's widely advertised minimum fares beginning at just GBP£75 one way. However, fares later became much less competitive.
On 9 April 2008 Oasis Hong Kong announced that it had ceased operations, with a provisional liquidator, KPMG China, appointed to oversee the liquidation of the company. KPMG China is appointed as the liquidator.
On 8 July 2008 it was announced that unsecured creditors of collapsed Oasis Hong Kong Airlines, including ticket holders, will eventually receive no more than 10 percent of what they are owed, according to the airline's provisional liquidator, KPMG.
On 16 September 2008 this estimate was reduced to 'less than 5%'. No timetable was given for distribution of these funds.
