Lynx Aviation

Lynx Aviation

Lynx Aviation, Inc. was a regional airline based in Denver, Colorado, USA. The airline was a subsidiary of Republic Airways Holdings and operated feeder service for Frontier Airlines. The Lynx name plays off of the tail pictures of its planes, specifically Larry the Lynx, and the fact that it "links" smaller airports to the main Denver hub of Frontier Airlines. All flights operated by Lynx Aviation were sold and marketed as "Frontier Airlines operated by Lynx Aviation."

On August 13, 2009, Frontier Airlines and Lynx Aviation were purchased by Republic Airways Holding of Indianapolis, Indiana through an auction held in the US Bankruptcy Court. In the agreement the remaining operation of Lynx Q400 flights for 2011 will be following the air operator's certificate of Frontier Airlines (F9/FFT) to further consolidate in the operation's final phase.
