'My Way Airlines S.r.l., known commercially as MyAir.com, was an Italian budget airline headquartered in Torri di Quartesolo, Vicenza. The carrier provided scheduled flights linking various Italian cities with international locations such as France, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Morocco, Spain, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Its main operational hub was located at Orio al Serio Airport in Bergamo, near Milan, until the Italian Civil Aviation Authority (ENAC) suspended its operations there. ENAC officially revoked the airline's license on 24 July 2009.
History
Established in 2004, MyAir commenced service on 17 December that year, initially utilizing three wet-leased Airbus A320-200 aircraft before moving to operate its own fleet of A320-200s. The airline was supported by former executives from Volare Airlines, with ownership stakes held by Triskel SRL (51%) and My Holding (23%). By March 2007, the company employed a workforce of 232.
On 21 July 2009, ENAC halted MyAir’s flights at Bergamo-Orio al Serio Airport due to outstanding tax and fee payments; by 24 July, services from Venice Marco Polo and Bari International Airports were also discontinued.
In September 2006, MyAir placed a firm order for 19 Bombardier CRJ-900 regional jets; after receiving four units, the remaining orders were modified to CRJ-1000 models in February 2007. Nevertheless, Bombardier canceled the remaining undelivered aircraft orders on 11 August 2009.
By September 2009, company leadership was engaged in discussions with four potential financial investors to revive operations. Subsequently, bankruptcy proceedings were initiated by a Vicenza court on 2 February 2010.
