Nov 20, 2020 (newstodate): FlyBosnia, set up in 2017, may have once again narrowly escaped a harsh landing and bankruptcy.
The carrier, that stopped all flights in September 2020, is now hoping to restart flights in Q1/2021, signing a lease-agreement with lessor GA Telesis for two A320 aircraft expected to arrive already before the end of this year, and ambitions are to add a further two aircraft once the Covid-19 has been overcome.
In August 2020, the carrier decommissioned its single own aircraft, an Airbus A319, and scrapped plans for adding two more Airbus A320 Family aircraft.
The airline next operated one wet-leased Airbus A320 aircraft from the Lithuanian charter and AMCI carrier GetJet Airlines for charter flights to leisure destinations in Turkey - but even this attempt to stay in the air failed and all flight operations came to halt.
FlyBosnia performed its first commercial flights on September 24, 2019, established by the al-Shiddi Group, the largest Saudi investor in Bosnia and Herzegovina and operating in Bosnia and Herzegovina since 2006.
