Шаблон:Infobox airline Air Horizont Limited is a Maltese charter airline headquartered in Msida, Malta with aircraft operating bases at London Southend Airport and Milan Malpensa Airport. It is a subsidiary of Corporacion Aragonesa Aeronautica S.A..[1][2]
History
Air Horizont was founded in 2014 by pilots Manuel Sahli and Juan Luis Díez.[3] Air Horizont attempted to launch scheduled operations in 2011, but failed due to the airline being unable to secure adequate funds.
The airline was set to commence operations in May 2015 using a Boeing 737-400 registered 9H-ZAZ, serving Munich, Seville, Alicante and Rome twice a week.[4] However, the launch was postponed to July 2015,[3] citing delays in receiving its air operating permit. In June 2015 it was announced that Air Horizont will not operate scheduled flights and instead focus on charter operations.[5][6]
Since its founding, the airline has transported more than 1.5 million passengers to more than 250 airports. While being a commercial charter airline, they also specialise in VIP transport, most notably flying several well-known international sports teams around Europe.[7]
The airline has two permanent bases at London Southend Airport and Milan Malpensa Airport, with temporary operating bases at Zaragoza, Bratislava and Porto.[8]
