History
Carpatair was founded in 1999 and grew into a scheduled regional carrier based in Timișoara, before filing for insolvency under Romanian law in January 2014, which led it to dissolve most of its route network by May 2014.
Current Operations
Carpatair no longer operates scheduled routes within Romania or Moldova; it has shifted to ad-hoc and ACMI wet-lease charter operations, contracting its aircraft and crews to European carriers such as airBaltic, KLM, Norwegian Air Shuttle and Brussels Airlines.
