TUS Airways

TUS Airways was founded in June 2015 and is backed by investors from Europe and the United States.^[3][4] It was the first Cypriot airline to be founded after the dissolution of Cyprus Airways in 2015. TUS Airways began operations on 14 February 2016 with a Saab 340B operating from Larnaca to Tel Aviv and Haifa in Israel. In July 2016, the airline received its first Saab 2000 to increase capacity on its routes.^[5] In June 2017, the airline acquired its first jet aircraft, two Fokker 100. It subsequently bought five Fokker 70, bringing the total number of aircraft to seven.^{[citation needed]}

In September 2019, there were reports stating the airline was going to close but the management team at the time dismissed these reports.^{[citation needed]} In 2021, the airline confirmed that the name TUS Airways will remain and that the airline will resume operations in summer of 2021 under a new business model, a new management team and a new fleet centred around the Airbus A320 aircraft.^{[citation needed]} By 2023, TUS Airways was the largest Cypriot airline by fleet size, operating five aircraft with scheduled and charter operations from both Larnaca & Paphos.^{[citation needed]}

As of June 2023, TUS Airways operates scheduled flights from Larnaca and Tel Aviv.^{[citation needed]}
