History

In January 2017 Air Mediterranean obtained their Air operator's certificate (AOC), under the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority in accordance with the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Regulation.[2][3]

The airline's plan was to cover the gaps between countries with poor or no connectivity, linking Europe with the rapidly expanding markets of Middle East and Africa using Athens as a Hub.[1] Air Mediterranean commenced scheduled passenger operations on 1 November 2017.[4] However, on 18 January 2018, the airline suspended all flights until further notice.[5] In February 2018, the airline announced it would cease all scheduled operations and focus on charter operations instead.[6]

Destinations

As of June 2020, Air Mediterranean focuses on charter/ACMI operations.
