History
The airline was established in 1991 from the Aeroflot Chita Division. It was announced in April 1998 that Chitaavia and Baikal Airlines would merge into a single entity as part of a three-year economic and social co-operation agreement between Irkutsk and Chita Oblasts. However, in September 1998, Baikal Airlines was declared bankrupt.
At the end of 2004, VIM Airlines acquired Chitaavia.[4]
