Silverjet plc ("Silverjet"), the British airline offering a private jet
experience at a fraction of the price, today announces another record set of
passenger and traffic statistics for February 2008.

                                                              1-29 February 2008
Available seats                                                         13,800
Revenue seats(1)                                                         8,829
Load factor                                                                 64%

(1) 'Revenue seats' represents the number of seats generating commercial revenue
and also passengers on non-refundable tickets that have not flown.

(2) 'On time' is defined as departure within 15 minutes of scheduled departure
time.


Lawrence Hunt, Chief Executive of Silverjet, said:

"We are delighted to announce another record month of passenger statistics, with
our load factor up 10% from January. This is particularly encouraging given the
shorter month and February half-term.

"Forward bookings remain strong for both our New York and Dubai service which is
further testament to the market endorsement of our product. We continue to see a
very high number of repeat customers. On our New York service, over 25% of
customers are now repeat bookers. Our Dubai service continues to go from
strength to strength and is ahead of expectations.

"We are delighted to report that Silverjet is the most punctual airline on both
our London to New York and London to Dubai services. Official data published by
the Civil Aviation Authority this week confirms that Silverjet, for the third
consecutive month in a row, is the top on time performer on the London to New
York route and the top performer on London to Dubai for the second month in a
row, which is extremely gratifying after only two months of operation. For the
year as a whole, Silverjet was the top UK carrier flying from London to New
York. We are very proud of this excellent performance which demonstrates our
focus on service delivery. We look forward to maintaining our pole position
throughout 2008."

"The Board is making every effort to ensure that Silverjet will achieve its
first month of operating profit and be cash generative in March 2008."
