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:
“All history becomes subjective; in other words there is properly no history, only biography.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“No matter how vital experience might be while you lived it, no sooner was it ended and dead than it became as lifeless as the piles of dry dust in a school history book.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1874–1945)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
