History

MalAir was established in 1922 with a stated aim to provide an alternative form of transport for prospective immigrants entering the country, as a result MalAir primarily operated a number of seaplanes and airships which could land in the newly formed country without the need for the larger infrastructure of land-based airports.

In the 1930s MalAir suffered a series of challenges, as the actions of the Imerians resulted in the company being forced to halt operations which only resumed following the success of the Great Exodus and the re-establishment of the country in 1933. Between 1933 and 1938 MalAir resumed international flights to Mystria, however, the start of the civil war resulted in these routes being halted and the company focused their efforts on regional flights.

In the course of the civil war, a majority of MalAir flights consisted of rotodyne routes between various cities and offshore research facilities, however, a small number of long-range flights took place between the mainland and some overseas territories which were being used for research, logistics and intelligence gathering operations.

In 2018 it was revealed that between 1954 and 1983 MalAir and Avro privately lobbied for an end to isolationism, with the company working with Avro on a number of commercial airliners and airships for use in international routes, a small number of which developed into the Avro Swallow and Avro Bartini.

It has been theorised that this lobbying was used to integrate MalAir as a subsidiary of MalTra as part of several structural reforms which took place in the years following the dissolution of the Socialist Republic and National Workers' Republic.

In preparation for the end of isolationism, MalAir worked with Avro on a number of new passenger aircraft and airships and started preparations for operating from newly constructed international airports, such as Nikola Tesla International Airport in Epping.

MalAir operates a number of routes across Mystria which are presently served by a mixture of hypersonic aircraft and long-range airships, with the latter also serving as luxurious cruise ships.
