The World’s Airlines History: Past, Present & Future

Welcome to Airline History

If you have a passion for commercial airlines then you have come to the right place. This includes airlines from 285 countries (current & previous) and regions around the world. Iberia has now been added. The world has been split into 4 geographical areas based on the UN geoscheme. See “The World” on the index for further details.

Please see below for daily additions and updates, with both also available on the sidebar on every page
The administration is not responsible for possible inaccuracies and irrelevance of the information provided

Unfortunately there is a significant number of “Zombie Airlines” (shown as active but are not). Work in progress on these

I would like to thank the following for their continuing contributions: Denis Dionne + Craig Morris (TimeTables) + ch-aviation + Robert Hoppe + Jan & Marjolein Warmerdam + Erras Aditya + Airline Timetable Images + Gklavas Athanasios (Airline tickets)
