Their headquarters address is an apartment in Rego Park. You can get a good Knish there, though.

Are they actually going to call their frequent flyer program "Freeloaders?"

Their website has been up for years, but then so has that of Family Airlines.

Baltia came to us last year to assist in locating a 742/3 for their intended New York to St. Petersburg. Problem was that they wanted everything on the cheap. The talk was big but we withdrew after a short period, realizing that we were wasting our time. They stated that they could not afford a 744 at the time and our contention was the available classics were extremely high time a/c, many of them which would have required major dollars for heavy maintenance.

For the first year, they were talking two trips per week using just one a/c and that is where we left them.

Copied from AviTrader this week:

» Baltia Air Lines signs engine leasing agreement

Baltia Air Lines has signed an engine lease agreement with Logistic Air. Baltia's executive vice president Mr. Russell Thal stated, "The power-by-the-hour engine lease agreement is the most economical way for a start-up carrier to operate its aircraft and reduces its expenditures and risks. The agreement with Logistic Air includes support."

This sounds like a marriage made in heaven!

From what I hear they bought an ex American International Airways 747-200 thats been sitting in the desert for many years. They are trying to buy a second. They have office space in Term 4 at JFK.
If they get off the ground I give it about 6 months to a year before the doors are closed... For a company like this they have to plan to fill that -200 on almost every trip to keep the company going... they dont have much money backing them up thats why they couldnt get a -400.
Delta or Aeroflot or both will add more Russia flights and that will be the end.
