Orange2Fly was a Greek charter airline offering wet lease, charter and ad hoc flights[5][6] headquartered at Athens International Airport.

History[]

The airline was founded in September 2015 by Greek investor Pantelis Sofianos. It received its first aircraft, an Airbus A320-200, in June 2016 and started operations on 20 July 2016. The airline’s fleet had grown to include four Airbus A320 aircraft by December 2018.[citation needed]

In early 2020, Orange2fly ended all flights at Pristina International Airport Adem Jashari, where it operated four scheduled routes to Germany and Switzerland and was the fifth largest airline in 2019.[7]

The company was granted court protection from creditors in October 2020.[8][9] As of January 2021, Orange2fly suspended all operations with plans for a restructuring.[3] In February 2021, the Greek Govt declined to offer a loan.[10]

Destinations[]

Orange2Fly offers charter services on behalf of tour operators and other airlines and also used to operate scheduled routes from Pristina which have since ceased.[7]
