Air Lipsia was a German virtual airline headquartered and based at Leipzig/Halle Airport.[1]
History
The airline commenced operations on 31 October 2010 with flights to Brussels and Prague operated by contractor Central Connect Airlines.[1] The name Air Lipsia came from the old Latin and Italian name for Leipzig. As of October 2010, services to other destinations such as London were planned with a leased Boeing 737-500.[2]
The route to Prague was terminated less than a year later, by 10 June 2011, due to low passenger numbers while the service to Brussels was sent into hiatus.[3] According to the schedule of Leipzig/Halle Airport, Air Lipsia didn't provide scheduled traffic anymore as of November 2013[4] with no other established sources regarding the whereabouts of the airline to be found.
Destinations
Air Lipsia marketed the following scheduled destinations operated by Central Connect Airlines on their behalf:[1]

Fleet
As of November 2010 the Air Lipsia fleet consisted of one Saab 340 aircraft operated by Central Connect Airlines, with 33 seats.[5] As of December 2013, Central Connect Airlines didn't operate for Air Lipsia anymore.[6]
