History

edit

Livingston Compagnia Aerea was founded by taking over the name, the landing rights and some other assets from the liquidation process of the former Livingston Energy Flight. The airline started with charter operations across Europe.

After the Italian low-cost company Wind Jet collapsed in August 2012, Livingston announced that it would take over several routes of Wind Jet's. As of December 2013 it had not been announced whether these temporary flights will be continued.[2] On 27 October 2013, the airline took over Alitalia on the Alghero, Sardinia to Rome, Italy route with three daily flights.[3]

On 25 June 2014 ENAC announced that the AOC for Livingston would be suspended effective on 14 July 2014 due to financial troubles.[4][5] This decision was revoked a few days later, the airline meanwhile continued its operations.[6]

However, as of 7 October 2014, Livingston ceased all operations and returned their planes to the lessors. One day later, the Italian authorities revoked the airline's operating license.[1][7]
