DATA COMPILED BY FLIGHTGLOBAL DATA RESEARCH TEAM, GEOFF MACHIN AND IAN JOYCE
Flight Internationals World Airlines directory contains

information on 1,500 airlines, which are listed
alphabetically with a country index included at the back.
The selection criterion has been to list operators with
one or more aircraft with more than 19 seats. Where
justified by significance of service or national carrier
status, airlines operating aircraft with fewer than 19 seats
are listed, as are some helicopter companies that operate
a significant number of scheduled passenger services.
The listing includes scheduled or charter cargo
operators.
The directory includes, where possible, non-jet
commuter and regional operators that meet the inclusion
criteria, but is not a complete guide to air-taxi services.
Data incorporated in the directory from Flightglobals
flightglobal.com
FIN_200410_WAD 5
Air Transport Intelligence database is correct up to early

2010, and includes contact details/addresses and where
relevant the airlines three-character International Civil
Aviation Organisation airline designator code in () and
the two-character IATA code in []. Also included are
telephone and fax numbers (including international
dialling codes), partners and shareholders and senior
executives. A brief description and history is provided
where appropriate.
Fleet data, correct to early 2010, including in-service
(but not parked aircraft) and firm orders shown in ()
for turbine-powered aircraft, is sourced from
Flightglobals ACAS database for more information
visit flightglobal.com/acas or telephone +44 (0) 1788
540898.
Some information on piston-powered types is

included. In the case of wet-lease operators, aircraft are
generally recorded in the fleet of the company for which
they are flown, rather than the carrier that operates them
(if the two are different).
The directory is compiled by our data research team
who support ACAS and ATI, and is edited by Gnter
Endres. Data collation has been co-ordinated by
Flightglobal research officers Geoff Machin and Ian
Joyce.

Date operations started 15 July 1923
Description Largest Russian carrier operating international
passenger services to 93 destinations in 47 countries in
Europe, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Domestic services and flights to several CIS countries are
also flown. Additional international destinations are served
through codesharing agreements with foreign airline
partners. Is also the countrys largest cargo carrier.
History Founded as Dobrolet to provide services between
Moscow and Nizhni Novgorod. On 25 February 1932 the
Central Administration of Civil Air Fleet was founded and
adopted the name Aeroflot. In addition to providing
scheduled air transport services, Aeroflot was also
responsible for non-transport activities ranging from
surveying and polar exploration to crop spraying and firefighting. It had become the worlds largest airline by the end
of the 1930s, employing in excess of 400,000 staff and
operating around 4,000 aircraft. In 1992, following the
collapse of the Soviet Union, Aeroflot was divided into more
than 300 regional airlines and international routes were
operated separately as Aeroflot Russian International
Airlines (ARIA). Two years later Aeroflot was registered as a
joint stock company and the government sold off 49% of its
stake to Aeroflot employees. In 2000 the company changed
its name to Aeroflot Russian Airlines. On 14 April 2006
Aeroflot Russian Airlines formally became the tenth member
to join the SkyTeam alliance. In February 2010 President
Putin approved the proposed merger of six smaller airlines
then controlled by Rostekhnologii: Kavminvodyavia (KMV),
Orenair, Rossiya, Sakhalinskiye Aviatrassy (SAT), Saravia and
Vladivostok Air into Aeroflot. The consolidation was
envisaged as a two-stage process with the five smaller
carriers initially combined into one based on Rossiya, but
managed by Aeroflot This would be followed by a merger
between Rossiya and Aeroflot.

Description Argentinian flag carrier serving more than 30
domestic and some 20 international destinations in Europe,
the Americas and Australasia.
History Established through the nationalisation and
unification of four carriers Zonda, Aeroposta, Alfa and
FAMA. A DC-6 flight to New York on 21 March 1950 marked
the launch of international services. On 27 December 1989,
the government authorised the privatisation of its flag carrier
and Spains Iberia took the opportunity to strengthen its
South American network, by initially acquiring a 30% stake in
Aerolineas Argentinas on 21 November 1990. Iberias stake
was subsequently increased to 83.5%. The continuing poor
financial performance led Iberia to reduce its holding to 20%,
which was transferred to Spanish state holding company,
SEPI. The company was reorganised as a subsidiary of
Interinvest. In July 1998 American Airlines acquired a 10%
stake in Interinvest, which in turn gave it an 8.5% holding in
Aerolineas Argentinas. Aerolineas filed for protection from
creditors in 2001 and parts of the business were sold off.
Grupo Marsans acquired 92.1% in 2001 and committed to

a long-standing dispute with Grupo Marsans, an agreement
was finally reached which allowed the Argentinian
government to renationalise Aerolineas, and sister company
Austral, in July 2008, although the process was not approved
by the Argentinian congress until December 2008.

nationalised in 1959. In 1970, the Mexican government
rationalised domestic airlines into an integrated air transport
system under Aeronaves de Mexico control and organised

Cintra became Consorcio AeroMexico, in which the Mexican
government owned a majority stake. In October 2007 the

group for $249 million. In April 2008 a charter subsidiary,
AeroMexico Travel was launched, initially operating three MD80s,on domestic charters to holiday destinations.

2006 and LTU in March 2007. On 27 March 2007 Air Berlin
also announced that it would be taking a 49% stake in Swiss
carrier Belair. On 1 October 2009, Air Berlin and TUIfly
implemented a cross ownership agreement through which
each acquired a minority stake in the other. As part of this
arrangement, Air Berlin agreed to wet lease 17 aircraft from
TUIfly for 10 years, to operate 100 former TUIfly city routes
between 45 cities. In March 2009, the acquisition of a
minority stake by Turkish carrier Pegasus Airlines parent

company was agreed, receiving regulatory approval the

following month. In September 2009 it was revealed that the
planned share swap with TUI Travel would be replaced, either
by a phased acquisition by TUI Travel, but this would be
decided after any outstanding regulatory issues had been
resolved. The deal to lease and operate former TUIfly aircraft
on 100 former TUI routes was however approved by the
Bundeskartellamt later that month. Commercial co-operation
with Pegasus Airlines began on 30 September 2009.

Date operations started October 1933
Description Principal French carrier operating domestic and
worldwide scheduled passenger and cargo services to 98
countries throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the
Far East, the Americas, Caribbean and Indian Ocean.
History Founded when the Socit Centrale pour lExploitation
de Lignes Ariennes purchased the assets of Compagnie
Gnrale Aropostale. After the Second World War, French air
transport was nationalised and Socit Nationale Air France
established on 1 January 1946, followed by Compagnie
Nationale Air France on 16 June 1948. On 12 January 1990,
the operations of all government-owned airlines, Air France, Air
Inter, Air Charter and UTA, were merged into the Air France
Group. A new holding company, Groupe Air France was set up
by decree on 25 July 1994, and implemented on 1 September
1994. It had majority shareholdings in both Air France and Air
Inter (later rebranded Air France Europe and fully absorbed
into Air France in 1997). On 10 February 1999 the French
government partially privatised the airline on the Paris stock
exchange. Air France became a founder member of SkyTeam
alliance together with Delta Air Lines, AeroMexico and Korean
Air in June 2000. On 30 September 2003 Air France and KLM
announced a merger through a share exchange, and an
agreement for KLM to join the SkyTeam Alliance. On 5 May
2004 both airlines essentially completed their merger after a
successful share exchange and became the Air France-KLM
Group. Each airline retains its brand with passengers
benefiting from co-ordinated schedules throughout their route
networks. In December 2004 the French state sold 18.4% of
its equity stake in the Air France-KLM Group, reducing its stake
to just under 20%. Late in 2007 Air France-KLM made an offer
for a major stake in Alitalia which was formally accepted by the
Italian carriers board on 21 December 2007. In May 2009 Air
France-KLM and Delta implemented global joint venture
agreement through which the carriers would jointly operate
transatlantic routes, sharing revenues and costs. The
agreement also covered all flights between Amsterdam and
India and North America and Tahiti. A delayed cargo joint
venture with China Southern Airlines, which had been
announced in November 2007, with a planned launch in
2008, was indefinitely postponed in June 2009.

History The unique one-aircraft service across the Taiwan
Straits between Macau, Beijing, Shanghai and Taipei began
in December 1995, but this has been replaced by direct
services between Macau and Taipei. A freighter service was
launched in October 2002, between Taipei and Shenzhen via
Macau. In 2008 the introduction of direct scheduled flights
between mainland China and Taiwan had an adverse effect
on Air Macau, by removing the need for all such flights to
route through either Hong Kong or Macau. In July 2009 the
airline received approval for a funds injection of up to $65
million from its shareholders, in an effort to maintain
operations. In December 2009 a further cash injection of
$20 million raised CNACs stake in the carrier to about 80%.

Description National airline of Malawi operating scheduled
regional passenger services from Blantyre and Lilongwe to
South Africa, Tanzana, Zambia and Zimbabwe. A domestic
route is also flown between Blantyre and Lilongwe, and
further domestic routes will be developed.
History Air Malawi was originally established as one of three
wholly owned subsidiaries of Central African Airways in
1964. Following the dissolution of CAA in 1967, its three
former subsidiaries remained. In early 1992 co-operative
agreements with airlines in neighbouring countries, including
Air Tanzania, Air Zimbabwe and Uganda Airlines, led to
improved regional services from early 1992. Through these
co-operative arrangements, services to Dubai were
introduced in 1996. In August 2008 the government stated
its intention to disband Air Malawi and establish a new
airline in which it would take a 51% shareholding, while
seeking to attract a strategic investor to take the remaining
shares. Plans announced by the government in June 2009
to sell a 49% stake in the flag carrier to South African carrier
Comair fell through, leaving Air Malawi to seek a strategic
partnership with another carrier. The airline has recently
been in talks with Air Zambezi (Tanzania) in this regard.

network by adding international flights to Thailand and
Singapore through its ThaiAirAsia division, a joint venture
with Shin Corporation. On 22 November 2004 AirAsia
introduced its initial public offering and was listed on the

announced the acquisition of a 30% stake in VietJet, which
was to be rebranded as VietJet AirAsia.

Description Latvias national airline, operating services from
Riga to destinations throughout Europe, western Russia, the
CIS and Middle East. Additional European services link
Liepaja with three cities and Vilnius in Lithuania with 19
destinations. Direct flights are also flown between
Copenhagen and Kaliningrad. Worldwide connections are
available through strategic partner SAS. A single domestic
route is also served between Riga and Liepaja.
History Formed as a joint venture, primarily between
Scandinavian Airlines (29%) and the Latvian state (51%),
with investors from Sweden, Denmark and the USA taking
the rest. During 1998-2000 AirBaltic took over all SAS
activities in Latvia. In September 2005 the airline launched
domestic service, linking Riga with Liepaja. Operations from
the new Lithuanian hub in Vilnius were launched on 1 June
2004, following the accession of the Baltic states into the
European Union. International services from Liepaja began
in May 2007. In August 2009 the Latvian government
announced plans to increase its capital investment in
AirBaltic, to retain control of the carrier as private investment
increased. This allayed fears that the carrier could become
insolvent because of unsettled short-term debt.

the carrier as AirTran Airways. In 1995 AirTran Airways was
spun off by Mesaba and formed its own independent holding
company named Airways Corporation. On 17 November 1997,
ValuJet, Inc, the holding company for ValuJet Airlines, Inc,

1981 to serve communities using routes vacated by larger

Domestic flights serve 23 cities, while international flights

History Founded as Aerolinee Italiane Internazionali, but more
commonly known as Alitalia. On 31 October 1957 Alitalia
merged with Linee Aeree Italiane (LAI) and took on the name
FIN_200410_WAD 32
of Alitalia Linee Aeree. In 1969 Alitalia became the first

airline in Europe to have an all-jet fleet. In 1997 Alitalia
created regional subsidiary Alitalia Express. In July 2001
Alitalia became a member of the SkyTeam alliance. In March
2008 the Alitalia board accepted a conditional takeover offer
from Air France-KLM. The offer was however withdrawn on 21
April 2008, due to opposition from Alitalia unions and
incoming Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. On 30 May
2008 the Italian government announced the launch of a
fresh initiative to sell a 49.9% stake in the airline. On 20
November 2008 Alitalias administrator agreed to sell the
airline to an investor consortium, Compagnia Aerea Italiana
(CAI), led by Piaggio chairman Roberto Colaninno and made
up of 16 private companies, each of which took a 6.25%
share in the carrier. The transfer of assets took place on 30
November 2008. Operations under CAI ownership, originally
due to start on 1 December 2008, were delayed until 12
January 2009. Plans also called for Air One to become a
separate but subsidiary carrier, and the two airlines began
operating a new joint timetable on 13 January 2009. Air One
was subsequently positioned as Alitalias low-cost
subsidiary. On 19 January 2009, Air France-KLM was
announced as Alitalias strategic partner, taking a 25% equity
stake at a cost of 323 million.

History Founded under the present name as a direct successor
to American Airways, formed in 1934, with other predecessor
companies dating to 1926. American Airlines introduced the
first transcontinental jet service on 25 January 1959. On 15
October 1998, it became the first airline to offer electronic
ticketing throughout its entire worldwide network following the
expansion of its e-ticketing service to all 44 countries it
serves. American was a founder member of the Oneworld
global airline alliance, with British Airways, Canadian, Cathay
Pacific and Qantas on 1 February 1999. American Airlines
completed the purchase in February 1999 of Reno Air, whose
operations were fully integrated on 31 August 1999 and in
April 2001 purchased the assets of TWA. On 13 February
2010 the US Deptartment of Transportation issued its initial
approval of the codeshare and joint venture anti-trust
immunity application made with Oneworld partners American
Airlines, British Airways, Finnair and Royal Jordanian, requiring
only that four slot pairs be given up at London Heathrow
airport. On receipt of anti-trust immunity approval Iberia,
American Airlines and British Airways were expected to sign a
joint business agreement covering their North Atlantic routes.

Description National carrier of Afghanistan linking Kabul with
Mazar-e-Sharif, in addition to international services to 15
destinations, primarily within Asia and the Middle East, but
also including Frankfurt and Moscow.
History As a result of the collapse of the Kabul communist
regime in 1992, internal factional fighting destroyed a large
proportion of the Ariana infrastructure and aircraft. In
October 1996 Pakistan provided a temporary maintenance
and operational base at Karachi airport. Domestic routes
were also relaunched at the time from Kabul airport. In 1999
UN sanctions forced the airline to suspend overseas
operations, and in November 2001 it was grounded. Started
rebuilding the following month and in January 2002
sanctions were lifted.

Description Provides regularly scheduled commercial cargo
charter services to over 34 US airports and nine

History Formed as DHL Worldwide Express and took its name
from the initials of its three founders, Dalsey, Hillblom and
Lynn. Initial business was based on expediting the
movement of bills of lading between Hawaii and San
Francisco. The company rebranded as DHL Airways in 1983
and grew rapidly, creating a new industry of international
door-to-door express service. Lufthansa and Japan Airlines
each acquired a 5% stake, which both carriers increased to
25% in 1992. The German Post Office acquired a 22.5%
stake in 1998, which was increased in stages to 51%, 76%
and finally 100% in 2001-02. In 2003 a US-based
investment group headed by John Dasburg completed a
management buyout of the cargo carrier using financing
provided by Boeing Capital and the carrier was rebranded as
Astar Air Cargo on 30 June 2003. DHL acquired a minority
share in August 2007 (which gave them 24.9% voting
rights). Astar subsequently made an unsuccessful bid for
ABX Air, which also operates for DHL.

addition to four US and three European cities. Avianca also
operates scheduled domestic and charter flights.
History Founded as Avianca (Aerovias Nacionales de
Columbia), the result of a merger of SCADTA (founded in
1919 by five Colombian and three German nationals) and
Servicio Aereo Colombiano. In March 2002 Avianca,
combined with its domestic subsidiary SAM Colombia,
merged with ACES Colombia to form the Summa alliance
and all operations began on 20 May 2002. On 21 March
2003 Avianca filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
and, following the grounding of ACES in August that year,
Summa was officially dismantled the following November.
Following restructuring under the new ownership of Grupo
Synergy, the airline emerged from Chapter 11 on 10
December 2004 and was renamed Aerovias de Continente
Americano, retaining its Avianca abbreviation. On 7 October
2009 Grupo Synergy and Grupo Taca announced a strategic
merger to create Latin Americas leading airline group. Under
the terms of the merger, each shareholder is to contribute its
respective controlling ownership participations in the
operations of Avianca and Grupo TACA to a newly formed
holding company. The airlines involved will retain their
separate branding and independent operations. The merger
is subject to regulatory and other anti-trust approvals.

Description Flag carrier linking Dhaka with major domestic
destinations, as well as international services to cities in
south Asia, the Middle and Far East, in addition to services
to London, Manchester and Rome.
History The carrier was incorporated shortly after the country
obtained its independence from Pakistan. Flights began with
a Douglas DC-3 transferred from the air force. The
Bangladesh government has been seeking a strategic airline
partner since 2000 and announced plans to offer 40% of
Biman to foreign airlines, with the intention that the buyer
will assume management control. There have not yet been
any takers. Faced with a shortage of aircraft, Biman has
been cutting back on services in recent years. In August
2006 the airline was transformed from a public sector

corporation into a public limited company, albeit one which
remained 100% state-owned. The airline relaunched under a
new image and logo in February 2010, and introduced
Boeing 777 services to London Heathrow and Dubai using a
wet-leased aircraft. In February 2010 Biman announced its
intention to resume the services that had been suspended
to Bangkok, Delhi, Mumbai and New York Kennedy by March
2010 and to launch new flights to Colombo, Guangzhou
and Tripoli.

Services. ABH became British Midland in 1997. Joined the
Star Alliance in July 2000. The BMI brand was adopted in
2001. BMED was acquired in October 2007, giving BMI
access to medium-haul routes to the Middle East, Asia and
Africa. In October 2008 the airlines chairman Sir Michael
Bishop exercised a put option to sell his 50%, plus one
share to Lufthansa, which subsequently announced its
intention to increase its stake to 80%. The German flag
carrier completed this process in January 2009. BMI
became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lufthansa in
November 2009 on the German carriers acquisition of SAS
Scandinavian Airlines shareholding, a deal made through
LHBD Holding.

destinations worldwide. Flights operated with franchise and
codeshare partners serve over 300 destinations. A founding
member of the Oneworld alliance, which offers connections
to more than 700 destinations in 150 countries.
History Traces its history to 25 August 1919 and the worlds
first daily international scheduled air service between
London and Paris. On 31 March 1924 a merger between
four airlines created Imperial Airways, which developed its
Empire routes to Australia and also deep into Africa. The
1939 nationalisation and amalgamation of Imperial Airways
with British Airways (a company created through the 1935
merger of a number of smaller UK air carriers) created
British Overseas Airways Corporation. Post-war continental
European and domestic flights were flown by a new airline:
British European Airways. In 1972 BOAC and BEA were
combined, finally coming together as British Airways in 1974.
Privatised in February 1987. Concluded the takeover of
Britains second-force airline, British Caledonian, in April
1988. BA became a founder member, along with American
Airlines, Canadian Airlines, Cathay Pacific Airways and
Qantas of a new global airline alliance, Oneworld, which
came into being on 1 February 1999. On 5 March 2007 BA
completed the sale of its UK regional subsidiary carrier BA
Connect to Flybe, acquiring a 15% stake in Flybe. The BA
Connect brand was subsequently adopted by franchise
partner GB Airways on all of its services for BA flown from
Manchester, East Midlands and Bristol from 25 March 2007.
A new subsidiary, BA CityFlyer launched services from
London City airport on 25 March 2007. Transatlantic
business class arm OpenSkies was merged with French
premium carrier L-Avion, acquired by BA on 2 July 2008. In
October 2008 BA the end of its franchise agreements with
both GB Airways and Loganair. In November 2009 BA and
Iberia reached an agreement to merge. The merged carriers,
which will retain their individual branding and hubs, will be
owned by a holding company, TopCo, which will be 55%
owned by BA shareholders and 45% owned by Iberia
shareholders. The merger was expected to be completed by
late 2010. On 13 February 2010 the US Deptartment of
Transportation issued its initial approval of the codeshare
and joint venture Anti-Trust Immunity application made with
Oneworld partners American Airlines, British Airways, Finnair
and Royal Jordanian, requiring only that four slot pairs be

given up at London Heathrow Airport.

transatlantic service from Havana to Madrid. The airline was
nationalised in 1959.

Northwest Airlines. Northwest and Delta received a single

Airlines brand is expected to be discontinued in 2010.

terrorist attacks in the USA, the airline repositioned itself by
offering low fares, but maintaining a full in-flight service. The
new strategy was accompanied by a name change to Flybe.
On 1 March 2007 Flybe acquired BA Connect from British
Airways, which added the entire BA Connect network,
excluding its routes out of London City airport. As a
consequence, British Airways took a 15% stake in the
enlarged carrier. Loganair became Flybes first franchise
operations on 25 October 2008.

international flights from Bahrain to destinations in Africa,

History The history of Gulf Air may be traced to the
establishment of Gulf Aviation in March 1950, when the
airline was formed as a partnership between a British
aviator, F Bosworth, and local investors. BOAC became the
major shareholder when acquiring 22% of the shares. In
1973 the governments of Bahrain, Qatar, Abu Dhabi and
Oman purchased BOACs shares and the carrier was
rebranded as Gulf Air. The Foundation Treaty of 1 January
1974 gave each government a 25% shareholding and Gulf
Air became the national carrier for the four Gulf states. In
May 2002 Qatar completed its previously announced
intention of withdrawing from Gulf Air, to concentrate on
developing Qatar Airways, and on 28 April 2006 Abu Dhabi
also withdrew from Gulf Air, as did Oman in 2007. Gulf
Traveller, an all-economy subsidiary, started operations from
Abu Dhabi to 17 destinations in June 2003, but was
disbanded following Abu Dhabis withdrawal from Gulf Air.

2009, and after months of talks, Iberia and British Airways
reached an agreement to merge. On completion, the merger
was expected to create a carrier with 419 aircraft, serving
205 destinations. The merged carriers, which will retain their
individual branding and hubs, will be owned by a holding
company, TopCo, which will be 55% owned by British Airways
shareholders and 45% owned by Iberia shareholders. The
merger was expected to be completed by late 2010, subject
to regulatory and shareholder clearances.

the world still operating under its original name. Began
establishing a global airline system through an alliance with
Northwest Airlines in July 1989. During 1996, KLM acquired

announced that Air France-KLM would become Alitalias
strategic partner, taking a 25% equity stake. In May 2009 Air
France-KLM and Delta implemented a global joint venture
agreement through which the carriers would jointly operate
transatlantic routes, sharing revenues and costs. The
agreement also covered all flights between Amsterdam and
India and North America and Tahiti.

resume domestic charters in December 2007. Services
were again suspended after the carriers only aircraft was
written off in a crash landing on 1 February 2008, but its

Description National carrier of Poland, providing scheduled

History Formed by the Polish government as a state-owned,
self-governing corporation, taking over existing domestic
routes and opening services to Europe. The invasion of
Poland, which led to the Second World War, forced the
suspension of all flights, but these were reactivated on 1
April 1945. In December 1992 the airline became a joint
stock company as a transitional step towards partial
privatisation, which was effected towards the end of 1999
with the SAirGroup acquiring a 37.6% stake. Became a
member of the Star alliance in October 2003. In June 2009
the Polish government increased its stake in the airline to
over 93% after acquiring the shareholding formerly held by
the SAirGroup.

Description German flag carrier serving nearly 200
destinations in around 100 countries in Europe, North and
South America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific
regions. Together with its partners Lufthansa serves more
than 410 destinations worldwide.
History Founded in Berlin on 6 January 1926 as a
consolidated German airline and went on to become one of
the worlds leading airlines, pioneering routes to the Far East
and across the North and South Atlantic. A reduced route
network was maintained during the war until 1945 when the
company went into liquidation. On 6 January 1953 Luftag
was founded in Cologne and later renamed Lufthansa. This
new German airline began operations on 1 April 1955,
primarily with propeller aircraft, moving into jets in 1960. In
1997 Lufthansa, Air Canada, SAS, Thai International and
United Airlines formed a global network known as the Star
Alliance. Later that year Lufthansa became a fully privatised
airline. In December 2007 Lufthansa agreed to acquire 19%
of the shares in JetBlue. Increased its shareholding in BMI
to 80% in October 2008, through acquiring Sir Michael
Bishops 50%, plus one share stake. Completed the
acquisition of Germanwings from Eurowings on 1 January
2009. On 22 June 2009 the EU approved Lufthansas bid to
acquire 45% of the holding company that owned Brussels
Airlines, with the option to acquire the remaining shares in
2011. On 1 September 2009, the EU formally agreed to
Lufthansas takeover of Austrian Airlines.

control from BOAC and other shareholders, and the airline
was soon renamed Malaysia-Singapore Airlines (MSA). On 3
April 1971 a split in MSA led to the incorporation of
Malaysian Airlines System Berhad (MAS). The new airline
officially began operations on 1 October 1972 as the
national carrier of Malaysia. On 15 October 1987 the trading
name was changed to Malaysia Airlines.

History Kimberly Clark began providing corporate transport for

provide aviation services. The 1978 Airline Deregulation Act
led to K-C Aviation forming a commercial air carrier in
Milwaukee, which became the base of Midwest Express. In
January 2003 Midwest Express changed its name to Midwest
Airlines. Its regional subsidiary Skyway Airlines also changed
to Midwest Connect. On 31 January 2008, Midwest Air
Partners, an affiliate of TPG Capital completed the acquisition
of the airlines parent company, Midwest Air Group, but was

Area) was formed in Montevideo by a group of Uruguayan
and British investors led by brothers Alberto and Jorge
Mrquez Vaeza in September 1935. Services resumed after
the Second World War on 15 September 1945, with the
Uruguayan government then controlling 83.3% of the stock.
The government placed control of the carrier under the
Uruguayan air force in 1974, and the services transport arm
(Tamu) then took over operation of all domestic flights,
leaving Pluna to operate exclusively on international
services. Uruguays government sold 75% of Pluna on 1 July
2007 to Germany-based investment fund Leadgate.

Some aircraft in its fleet are also used by Aeroflot.
History Created by Aeroflot as the Russia Special Civil
Aviation Department, primarily tasked with operating VIP
flights on behalf of the Russian government, including
operation of the presidential aircraft. The Rossiya brand was
retained in 1995 despite the name change to Russian State
Transport Company. In September 2004 the Russian
government instructed the two state-owned carriers Rossiya
and Pulkovo Aviation Enterprise to merge, becoming a single,
commercial enterprise under the Rossiya brand. The merger
was completed on 29 October 2006. In February 2010
Prime Minister Vladimir Putin approved the proposed merger
of six smaller airlines then controlled by Rostekhnologii:
Kavminvodyavia, Orenair, Rossiya, Sakhalinskiye Aviatrassy,
Saravia and Vladivostok Air into Aeroflot. The consolidation
was envisaged as a two-stage process, with the five smaller
carriers initially combined into one based on Rossiya, but
managed by Aeroflot This would be followed by a merger
between Rossiya and Aeroflot.

History Formed as Transavia Limburg, later becoming known

as Transavia Holland. In 1986 the name was changed to
Transavia Airlines, and it was the first airline to take
advantage of the worlds first open skies agreement signed
between the UK and Dutch governments. Transavia started
operating the route between Amsterdam and London
Gatwick, its first scheduled service, on 26 October that year.
During 1991 the airlines major shareholder, Nedlloyd, sold
its 80% holding to the Dutch national carrier KLM. In 1998 it
was the first carrier to operate domestic services in Greece
following a change in Greek aviation law. In June 2003 KLM
acquired the remaining 20% of Transavia, making the
company 100% KLM owned. In January 2005, the brands of
Transavia and Basiq Air merged. On 2 January 2006 the
company rebranded as transavia.com

Description Third-largest German airline operating scheduled

History Formed as the air charter subsidiary of the HapagLloyd shipping group under the name of Hapag-Lloyd
Flugzeugh. On 28 April 2005 the airline rebranded as
Hapagfly with a view to strengthening its internet presence
and boosting its seat-only business. In August 2006 parent
company TUI announced its intention to merge all its
constituent airlines throughout Europe under the TUIfly
brand. As an initial step TUIs two German based carriers
began an amalgamation process in January 2007 and by
mid-April 2007 Hapagfly and Hapag-Lloyd Express (HLX) were
operating under the new joint TUIfly brand. In March 2009
TUIfly and Air Berlin sealed a cross-ownership agreement
whereby each carrier acquired a minority stake in the other.

As part of this arrangement, TUIfly agreed to wet lease 17
aircraft to Air Berlin for ten years.

Description Regional carrier, operating Europes largest Dash
8 fleet to 36 destinations within Norway, and to Denamrk,
Sweden and the UK. The majority of operations are under
contract to the government, flying subsidised services to
commercially unviable destinations.
History Founded by Viggo Widere together with four friends,
and provided air taxi, ambulance, flight training, and aerial
photography until after the Second World War, when it began
scheduled seaplane services. A growing public demand for
more frequencies and improved punctuality resulted in the
government deciding to replace the seaplane services by
establishing a number of short take-off and landing ports.
Widere was reorganised in 1970 to play a more leading role
in the development of scheduled air services in the rural
districts, and development into a pure scheduled airline was
completed by an injection of new capital. In late November
1997 SAS, the Scandinavian flag carrier, purchased 29% of
Wideres shares, since increased to 100%.
