Inter Airlines was a charter airline based in Antalya, Turkey. It operated holiday charter flights from Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands to Turkish resorts, as well as wet lease services for other airlines. Its main base was Antalya Airport.[1]
Inter Airlines hold Jar-Ops 1 Air Operator Certificate and Jar-145 Maintenance Certificate issued by Republic Of Turkey Directorate General Of Civil Aviation, a member of the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA).
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).[1]
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.[2] The company may possibly resurface as a tour operator.
