VIM Airlines
VIM Airlines, also known as VIM-Avia, was a Russian airline that operated from 2000 to 2017. It was headquartered in Moscow and had its main hub at Domodedovo International Airport. VIM Airlines primarily focused on charter flights and offered both domestic and international services.
The airline started as an air transportation company specializing in cargo operations but later expanded its services to include passenger flights. VIM Airlines operated a fleet of aircraft that primarily consisted of Boeing 757 and Boeing 767 planes.
However, in 2017, VIM Airlines faced financial difficulties and encountered various operational issues. Passengers reported numerous flight delays and cancellations, leading to significant disruptions in the airline's operations. Subsequently, the Russian aviation authorities temporarily suspended VIM Airlines' air operator's certificate (AOC) due to the airline's failure to meet financial obligations and ensure flight safety.
Efforts were made to rescue the airline, including potential investments and restructuring plans, but ultimately, VIM Airlines ceased operations in October 2017. The airline's aircraft were returned to leasing companies, and its remaining assets were liquidated.
