History

Avies was established and started operations in 1991 and operated scheduled passenger transport, charter and air taxi services.

All domestic flights in Sweden were cancelled in March 2015, due to contract cancellation by Swedish Traffic Administration. Before that Avies flew three domestic routes in Sweden. Avies was declared bankrupt by court on 26 June 2015, however continued to operate as usual.

However, the remaining flights from Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport to Kuressaare Airport, Kärdla Airport and Stockholm-Arlanda were suspended on 1 April 2016, after the airline's operating license was withdrawn by Estonian Civil Aviation Administration for a duration of six months over security concerns.
