♦ LOT Polish Airlines (i) was formed on 01Jan1929 by the Polish Government to take over the operations of the private airlines, Aero TZ and Aerolot (formed as Aerolloyd Warszawa in 1922). Started operations on 02/Jan/1929 and its first international service began on 02/Aug/1929 to Vienna. For the duration of the Second World War, the airline suspended operations. On 01Jul1997 LOT set up a sister airline, EuroLOT, which, essentially operating as its parent airline’s regional subsidiary, took over domestic flights. LOT created low-cost arm Centralwings in 2004, however, the company was dissolved and reincorporated into LOT in 2009. On 06Feb2015, the decision was taken to liquidate EuroLot and transfer the majority of its fleet to LOT. The company temporarily suspended operations on 15Mar2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and domestic Polish flights restarted on 01Jun2020
