Air Atlantis was a charter operations wholly owned by TAP-Air Portugal and began operations in May 1985 using a Boeing 707 and a Boeing 737-200 aircraft.

The 727s were replaced by Boeing 737-200 and leased brand new Boeing 737-300 from 1988 onwards. By 1993, TAP-Air Portugal decided to restructure its operations and Air Atlantis was dissolved at the End of April 1993.
