note

City Star Airlines started operations on 28 March 2005 with one aircraft flying between Aberdeen, Scotland (Aberdeen Airport) and Oslo (Oslo Gardermoen Airport) in cooperation with and on the AOC of domestic airline Landsflug in Iceland. CSA's owners acquired a controlling share in Landsflug in 2005 in order to acquire JAR-OPS 1 licensed operator for its operation. CSA announced on 1 September 2007 that it's holding company had purchased Caledonian Airborne Engineering who provide engineering, maintenance and ground handling facilities at Aberdeen and Newcastle Airports. The purchase increased the companies employee base by an additional 60. On 22 December 2007 CSA's holding company stated that it would form a new subsidiary, City Star Executive that would commence the first long haul, business class only flights from Aberdeen Airport to Houston, Texas starting in 2008. In a press release on 30 January 2008, City Star Airlines announced that it was to immediately cease all operations until further notice.
