Armenian International Airways ([Հայկական Միջազգային Ավիաուղիներ, Haykakan Mijazgayin Aviaughiner] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help); AIA) was a privately owned airline operating international passenger flights based from Zvartnots International Airport in Yerevan, Armenia.
History
Armenian International Airways was jointly established on July 12, 2002, by Armenian businessmen Gagik Tsarukian, Hrair Hakobian, and Levon Baghdasarian. AIA initially intended to lease three Airbus aircraft by 2003 for flights to Paris, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt. On January 1, 2005, the company merged with Armavia.
Routes
AIA operated scheduled flights from Yerevan to Western Europe, notably many former Armenian Airlines routes.
Fleet
AIA operated one leased Airbus A320-200. This aircraft was destroyed in a fire at Brussels Airport on 5 May 2006, along with one of Armavia's own A320s.[1]
