A PLANNED Uber-style air-taxi service wants to recapture the 100,000 inter-island travel customers lost over the last decade and not steal business from existing airlines, the entrepreneur behind the venture has said.

Nick Magliocchetti, the chief executive of Waves, claims that his new inter-island airline, through which customers will be able to order flights on-demand online, is not a competitor to existing operators, such as Blue Islands and Aurigny, because it is offering a different type of service.

He was unable to confirm exactly when the service would start running, however, despite initial plans to be operating commercially before the end of this summer.
