Fischer Air, briefly rebranded Charter Air,[citation needed] was a Czech airline headquartered in Prague and based at Ruzyně International Airport.[1][2]
History[edit]
The airline was established 1996. It was owned by the K&K Capital Group (75%) and (25%). In 2005 it was rebranded as Charter Air to avoid confusion with its new Polish charter subsidiary, Fischer Air Polska. Charter Air was not a success since a month later it was bankrupt.[citation needed]
In October 2018 plans were announced to restart the airline as air FISCHER as of April 2019.[3] However as of October 2019, there were doubts reported about the airline being relaunched at all[4] and it since never materialized after the relaunch had been delayed several times by 2020.[5]
Destinations[edit]
Fischer Air operated charter services for tour operator Fischer to over 30 destinations in Europe and Africa, as well as charter flights for other clients. It flew to many holiday destinations in the Mediterranean and North Africa, including Sharm el-Sheikh. It also operated a scheduled service to Malta.[citation needed]
