Air Vallée S.p.A. was an Italian charter and regional airline based in Rimini.[1] In June 2016 it ceased all operations.
History
Air Vallée was founded in June 1987 to promote the commercial development of Aosta Airport. In June 1988, a twice weekly link with Rome was started with a Beechcraft King Air C90. The C90 was replaced in October 1989 with a Cessna Citation I and another twin jet was acquired. Both were replaced by a Learjet 31 acquired in January 1992 and a Beechcraft King Air 200 was acquired in August 1993.
It operated scheduled services linking two destinations in Sardinia and six on mainland Italy, as well as charter services. Its main base was Aosta Airport, with hubs at Leonardo da Vinci Airport and Turin Caselle Airport.[2] The airline's head office was in Aosta Airport in Saint-Christophe.[3]
In the summer of 2010, Air Vallée restarted operations, offering domestic flights from Rimini as well as a weekly flight from Perugia to Olbia on Sardinia. A Dornier 328 Jet served these routes.
since September 2014[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., the airline operated only charter flights but planned to resume scheduled flights from Foggia to Milan-Malpensa and Turin from 26 October 2014.
In June 2016 Air Vallée suspended its operations as ENAC retired the airline's licence. The airline's sole aircraft was returned to the lessor.[4] In early 2018, the company showed its new website with flights to Rimini, Catania, Pescara, Tirana and other airports around Europe.[5]
