History edit
The airline was established in late 2019. The airline received its AOC in March 2021. It operated low cost regular and charter flights from Ukraine to Greece, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Egypt, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Montenegro and Spain[4] with 4 aircraft and planned to increase the fleet size to six aircraft in 2022.[5]
On 29 April 2021, the airline operated its first regular flight: from Kyiv to Yerevan.[6] Due to martial law on the territory of Ukraine and the closure of the airspace of Ukraine, all flights from 24 February 2022 were canceled.[7] The airline's AOC was revoked later in summer 2022 due to the airline not having any aircraft.[8][1]
