VAN AIR Europe, a.s. is a Czech passenger and cargo charter airline headquartered in Brno and based at Brno–Tuřany Airport.

History

The airline was founded in 2004. On 15 July 2006, the airline began operating flights on behalf of Citywing, operating flights out of Blackpool, the Isle of Man, Gloucester, Belfast City, Leeds/Bradford, Newcastle upon Tyne and Jersey. Until 6 May 2013, it also operated a Shoreham – Paris-Pontoise service on behalf of Brighton City Airways. A new service to Glasgow was inaugurated in March 2014.

The airline has operated in such diverse places such as Portugal, Italy, Croatia, Georgia, the Comoros, and France. Moreover, the airline has been operating OK-LRA, an aircraft fitted with PT6A-42 engines. This is significant, because the associated STC was obtained by the airline's sister company, AEROSERVIS, s.r.o., after approximately a decade of intense work and investment. The airline is a member of the European Regions Airline Association.
