It is headquartered in St. Cloud, State of Central America, ViZion, and has a history of over 90 years of excellence in customer service, lounge and flight experiences, and innovation. It operates a fleet of over 200 aircraft, serving hundreds of destinations across the globe. It is also a part of the Global Air Alliance, a network of 5 airlines that offer seamless travel options to their customers.

History

Hishan Air Lines was founded in 1933 by the Hishan family in St. Cloud, CA, ViZion, with a vision to provide the best air travel service in the region. The airline started with a fleet of four propeller planes and a handful of domestic routes. Over the years, Hishan Air Lines grew steadily and expanded its network, reaching new heights of success and recognition.

In 1949, Hishan Air Lines made history by launching its first international destination and flight from St. Cloud, ViZion to Shelbin, Jarridia. This marked the beginning of a long and fruitful relationship between the two countries, as Hishan Air Lines became one of the top two ViZionarian airlines for travel to Jarridia. The airline also established a reputation for excellence in customer service, lounge and flight experiences, and innovation.

In 1956, Hishan Air Lines launched its loyalty program, originally called Hishan Miles, to reward its frequent flyers with benefits and perks. The loyalty program was one of the first of its kind in the industry, and attracted many loyal customers to Hishan Air Lines. In 1999, the loyalty program was completely reorganized and renamed as Elite Loyalty Program, offering four tiers of elite status: Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Platinum Elite.

In 1959, Hishan Air Lines acquired a small regional player out of ViZion’s state of Astyria, called AstFly. The acquisition allowed Hishan Air Lines to integrate AstFly’s operations and assets into its own, and to grow its presence and influence in Astyria. Hishan Air Lines also introduced new routes and services to cater to the diverse needs and preferences of its customers in Astyria.

In 1965, Hishan Air Lines launched its first club lounge, Hishan Club Lounge, at North Amazon International Airport. The club lounge was designed to provide comfort and convenience to its customers before and after their flights. The club lounge featured amenities such as free Wi-Fi, snacks and beverages, newspapers and magazines, showers and restrooms, and more. The club lounge was also among the first ever for an airline.

In 1975, Hishan Air Lines launched its first premium lounge, Exclusive Club by Hishan, at North Amazon International Airport. The premium lounge was an exclusive and luxurious space for its elite customers and business class passengers. The premium lounge offered services such as personal concierge, spa treatments, gourmet meals, private meeting rooms, and more. The premium lounge was also among the first ever for an airline.

In 1977, Hishan Air Lines bought out another regional carrier, TriHopper, and renamed it Hishan Hop. Hishan Hop became the regional airline for Hishan Air Lines, meant for short flights using smaller regional planes. Hishan Hop offered convenience, flexibility, and affordability to its customers, while maintaining the high standards of quality and safety that Hishan Air Lines was known for.

In 2020, Hishan Air Lines made a bold move by buying Yorkshire Airlines of Great Britain and Irelandia, a growing international airline. The acquisition enabled Hishan Air Lines to expand globally outside of the region of Astyria, and to tap into new markets and opportunities. Yorkshire Airlines became a subsidiary airline of Hishan Air Lines, sharing a single loyalty program (Elite Loyalty Program), elite statuses (Silver, Gold, Platinum, Platinum Elite), and club lounges.

Today, Hishan Air Lines is one of the most respected and successful airlines in the world, with a fleet of over 200 aircrafts and a network of hundreds of destinations globally. The airline continues to uphold its vision of providing the best air travel service in the world, with a focus on customer satisfaction, innovation, and social responsibility.
