JSC Dalavia (Russian: ОАО «Дальавиа»), also known as Dalavia — Far Eastern Airways (Russian: Дальавиа «Дальневосточные Авиалинии») was an airline based in Khabarovsk, Russia. It operated scheduled and charter flights within Russia, and international flights to Asia. Its main base was Khabarovsk Novy Airport[1].

[edit] History

The airline was established in 1953 as Khabarovsk Aviation Enterprise and changed its name to Dalavia in January 1999. It is wholly owned by the Government.[3]

Dalavia is close to finalising a deal to acquire up to 25 Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft for use on regional routes in the Russian Far East. Completion of the deal is delayed while it is in talks with Aeroflot over a potential merger and formation of a new Far East division of Aeroflot [4]
