May 29, 2024 (newstodate): The Slovak passenger and cargo ACMI carrier AirExplore is thriving under new ownership since June 2023 by Lithuania's Avia Solutions Group.
Set up by a group of former Seagle Air and Air Slovakia employees with Martin Stulajter as CEO, AirExplore received its AOC on May 31, 2010, and started operations from June 2010 with one Boeing 737-300 aircraft.
AirExplore today operates a fleet comprising 14 Boeing 737-800 aircraft, including nine passenger and five cargo aircraft.
All aircraft are now fully booked by ACMI and lease customers, while one Boeing 737-800F is operating a scheduled service between Cologne, Billund and Keflavik after replacing the now defunct carrier BBN Bluebird Nordic that was also a member of the ASG.
AirExplore started out in the passenger air transport business, adding cargo services as well from May 2022 with its first Boeing 737-800BCF aircraft.
