Thai regional carrier PB Air, which was aiming to add its first [Saab 340](http://www.flightglobal.com/landingpage/saab%20340.html) in September, has suspended operations and it is unclear when it plans to resume.  
The airline has yet to receive its first Saab 340 as planned and it has stopped using its ATR 72 from Bangkok Airways, say industry sources.  
PB Air’s website has an announcement that the airline has suspended operations but it fails to mention when it will resume again.  
Executives from PB Air were unavailable for comment when contacted by ATI today.  
PB Air was operating from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport to six domestic destinations such as Mae Sot, Buriram and Roi-et.  
ATI reported in August that PB Air’s wet-lease on a Bangkok Airways ATR 72 would be ending in October and that in September it would be adding one Saab 340 and another in October. Both Saabs were to be dry-leased from US leasing company AeroCentury.
