About Small Planet Airlines

Small Planet Airlines was a Lithuanian airline with its airport hub at Vilnius International Airport (VNO). Small Planet Airlines was founded in 2007, under the name FlyLAL Charters. The airline flew charter services from Estonia for its first few years of operations. In early 2010, it gained authority to fly scheduled services to a number of different countries within Europe. In mid-2010, FlyLAL Charters rebranded as Small Planet Airlines. Shortly after the rebranding, Small Planet Airlines saw a significant rise in passenger traffic, proving that rebranding the airline was the right choice — the airline saw passenger traffic grow from 400,000 people per year to 700,000 people per year in a two year period.

Small Planet Airlines had a fleet that consisted of entirely Airbus aircraft, the main aircraft that Small Planet Airlines uses to operate its flights is the Airbus A320-200. Small Planet Airlines operates flights to a number of countries within Europe, including Spain, Bulgaria and Greece, as well as flights to Egypt.

In June 2012, Small Planet Airlines finalised an agreement to acquire more planes to add to its existing and new international routes. It was also looking at various types of turboprop aircraft for new domestic routes but this plan was eventually dropped. The A340s joined the fleet in October 2012, enabling the airline to strengthen its Manchester route with nonstop flights as well as launch a second Lahore-UK destination, Birmingham, in September 2013. UK operations also ended with Birmingham being dropped after just three months' service and Manchester ending in January 2014.

The airline began to experience financial difficulties in October 2018, and finally ceased flying operations in November 2018.
