Rheintalflug, legally Rheintalflug Vorarlberger Luftfahrt GmbH, was an Austrian regional airline that in its lifespan mainly operated routes to Austrian and German cities. In 2003 it merged with Tyrolean Airways to create Austrian Arrows[1]. After the merger the airline InterSky was formed as a successor to Rheintalflug.
History
[edit]The company was founded in 1973 by Rolf Seewald and initially operated taxi flights from the Hohenems-Dornbirn Airfield, then a scheduled connection from the St. Gallen–Altenrhein Airport to Vienna (17 flights per week in 1997), and from 1992 held the line concession for Europe. Since October 1998, it also served the routes from Friedrichshafen[2] to Hamburg, Cologne/Bonn and Berlin–Tegel, all on behalf of Lufthansa.
In February 2001, Rheintalflug was sold to Austrian Airlines and was thus a member of the Austrian Airlines Group. At the end of 2002 it was then merged with Tyrolean Airways to rebrand as Austrian Arrows. Renate Moser, wife of Rolf Seewald, then founded the airline InterSky with its home airport in Friedrichshafen.
Fleet
