note

The airline was established in December 1995 and was partly funded by the Italian investment group Seven Group and by Air Malta (49%). It started operations in December 1996. In November 2003 it was announced that Azzurra Air was to take over French airline Air Littoral, but this fell through the following month as Azzurra Air was in financial difficulties. In March 2004 operations were suspended when its regional fleet was withdrawn by lessor and co-owner Air Malta due to non-payment of leases. The company was declared bankrupt in July 2004. It had five Airbus A320-200 aircraft on order at the time.
