Inter Airlines - History

History

The airline was established in December 1999 and operations started on 4 April 2002. It was wholly owned by Birce Tours and had 200 employees (at March 2007).

On 13 November 2008 the airline announced it stopped all flights, citing the global financial crisis of 2008 and increasing fuel prices as the two main reasons. All 3 aircraft were returned to their lessors. The company may possibly resurface as a tour operator.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
    —Henry James (1843–1916)

    “There is one great fact, characteristic of this our nineteenth century, a fact which no party dares deny. On the one hand, there have started into life industrial and scientific forces which no epoch of former human history had ever suspected. On the other hand, there exist symptoms of decay, far surpassing the horrors recorded of the latter times of the Roman empire. In our days everything seems pregnant with its contrary.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)
