London : British business class airline Silverjet said Friday it was suspending operations with immediate effect due to a cash crisis.

It said last week that money agreed under a deal worth 12.7 million pounds ($25.4 million) signed with a Middle Eastern investor had not come through.
Silverjet sells business class tickets only with about 100 seats per aircraft. It has a fleet of 3 aircraft.
