Small Planet Airlines Sp. z o. o. was[4] a Polish leisure charter airline and a subsidiary of now-defunct Small Planet Airlines from Lithuania.
History[]
The airline was founded in December 2009 as flyLAL Charters PL Sp. z o. o., a branch of Lithuanian Airlines.[3] In April 2009 Small Planet Airlines bought the firm from its parent company Avia Solutions Group.
In October 2018, Small Planet Airlines Poland filed for restructuring measures due to a negative financial outlook[5] shortly after its badly managed German sister carrier declared bankruptcy. On 9 November 2018, most probably as a consequence of its sister company bankruptcy, it has been announced however that Small Planet Airlines Poland ceased its operations.[4]
Destinations[]
The company flew to Spain, Tunisia, Turkey, Greece, Italy and other countries from various Polish cities, mostly Katowice and Warsaw.
Fleet[]
The Small Planet Airlines Poland fleet consisted of the following aircraft as of November 2018:[6]
Aircraft | In Service | Orders | Passengers | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Airbus A320 and A321 | 8+4 | — | 180/220 | |
