Apr 13, 2011 (newstodate): On March 31, 2011, the Lithuanian carrier Avion Express introduced its first Airbus 320 passenger aircraft, becoming also the first operator of an Airbus aircraft in Lithuanian registration.
After maintenance and cabin interior refurbishment at Mirabel Aero Services, Montreal, the aircraft has now been deployed at Italy's Milano Malpensa Airport to operate charter flights under the brand Avion Express Italia.
In 2008, Avion Capital Partners became the major shareholder in Avion Express, formerly named Nordic Solutions, after that carrier providing in-night logistics services went bankrupt.
Switzerland-based Avion Capital Partners was set up in 2009 by David Masson, initially functioning as a management consultancy to Avion Aircraft Trading
Besides the latest addition of one Airbus A320, Avion Express, based at Vilnius, operates a fleet comprising three SAAB 340 aircraft in freighter versions and one SAAB 340 passenger aircraft.
