History of Aigle Azur

This small enterprise has a long history. It was founded in 1946 by Sylvain Floirat, a French business man that was very involved in the media. His first airplanes could transport 32 passengers. The company specialized its services early to the transportation of workers and expatriates to countries that were then under French rule: Tunisia, Lebanon, India, Algeria…

The company was sold in 1955 and then reestablished in 1970 under the name Lucas Aviation as a regional airline, operating short-distance flights, for example Deauville-London. From a modest size, Aigle Azur has grown tremendously since 2000. It developed notably by adding a regular route from France to Algeria and never stopping to open new routes to new destinations. The most recent one added was Madeira, Portugal in 2009.
