It seems that Airtime is just not going to get off the ground so to speak. The High Court of South Africa ruled in favour of 1Time Airlines in a dispute over the use of "time" in their name and the font and colours used in their logo.
The court ordered that:
• Airtime shall not use the company name ‘Airtime Airlines’ as a trademark
• The carrier is interdicted from using the word ‘ifly Airtime’ in relation to its services and business, including the advertising and marketing of its products and/or services.
• The carrier is interdicted from passing off its products, services or business as being that of 1time, by using the colour red and/or the word time, otherwise than in its ordinary descriptive sense, without distinguishing its products, services or business from 1time
• Airtime is also interdicted from misrepresenting its products, services and/or business to be that of 1time, or associated in the course of trade with 1time.
What do you think, do 1Time have a good point here?
