Athena Air Services

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Athena Air Services was a planned airline based in Johor Bahru, Malaysia in the early 2000s. It proposed to operate scheduled, domestic and international passenger services.[1]

History[edit]

The airline company was established in 2003 and intended to start its operations on 18 November 2003. It was owned jointly by Athena Sdn Bhd and PT Avipatria.[1] In 2004 it was considered by analysts as a small budget airline worth watching, with plans for expansion, but restricted by lack of a website for bookings.[2] The airline finally ceased all operations in 2016.[3]

Services[edit]

Athena Air Services originally projected to operate flights to Jakarta and Surabaya from Senai International Airport.[1]

Fleet[edit]

The Athena Air Services fleet consisted of 1 Boeing 727-200.[1]
