The US Air Transportation and Stabilisation Board has conditionally approved a USD148.5m loan guarantee for American Trans Air.

The Indianapolis-based airline will reportedly receive the federal backing on a USD165m loan subject to certain conditions. The conditions include paying the board additional fees and stock warrants.

The board approved the loan unanimously after the airline "demonstrated a reasonable assurance that it will be able to repay the loan according to its terms," The Associated Press reported.
