An airline born from a vision

Tirrenair, a new Corsican airline, was created thanks to the initiative of a group of professionals passionate about aeronautics. Their objective was clear: to facilitate intra-Corsica travel by offering a fast, reliable and accessible air service. The foundation of Tirrenair is based on the idea that connections between the main cities of Corsica, such as Ajaccio, Bastia and Figari, could be simplified by drastically reducing travel time.

Indeed, in the absence of a developed rail infrastructure and with road trips that were often long and winding, Corsicans and visitors to the island lacked a quick option to get around. Tirrenair was therefore founded to meet this need, allowing travelers to cross the island in just one hour, compared to several hours by car.

The beginnings of Tirrenair

The beginnings of Tirrenair were not without challenges. The aviation sector is highly competitive, and entering the market requires careful preparation. In 2021, Tirrenair officially launched its first flights between Ajaccio, Bastia and Figari. The reception of passengers was enthusiastic, and very quickly, the company was able to build a solid reputation in Corsica.

The choice of Tecnam P2012 Traveller for its intra-Corsica connections has allowed Tirrenair to stand out for the modernity and efficiency of its fleet. This aircraft, designed specifically for short flights, combines comfort and safety while being more environmentally friendly thanks to its reduced fuel consumption.

A mission focused on the future

Since its creation, Tirrenair's mission has been to become the reference airline in Corsica. But beyond simply connecting major cities, the company seeks to facilitate the daily lives of Corsican residents and tourists who want to discover the island more easily. With regular flights and flexible schedules, Tirrenair offers a convenient alternative to car or ferry trips.

At the same time, Tirrenair plans to expand its network of destinations. Even though the current priority is to consolidate intra-Corsica flights, discussions are ongoing to add connections to cities in mainland France or even Italy. These future developments will confirm Tirrenair as a key player in regional air transport.

Customer service at the heart of concerns

Tirrenair also stands out for its personalized customer service. Since the launch of the airline, special attention has been paid to passengers, whether they are traveling for business or pleasure. The flexibility of reservations, dedicated assistance and the possibility of adapting services according to passengers' needs are all assets that make Tirrenair a preferred choice.

The team on board, made up of experienced professionals, ensures the comfort and safety of passengers. Emphasis is also placed on punctual flights to ensure that travelers have a stress-free experience.

A company focused on ecology

Tirrenair is aware of current ecological challenges and strives to limit its carbon footprint. In addition to using more fuel-efficient aircraft, the airline has implemented internal practices to reduce waste and promote recycling. Sustainable development is an integral part of Tirrenair's future strategy, with clear goals to minimize the environmental impact of its operations.

Tirrenair is more than just an airline: it is a visionary project that aims to revolutionize transport in Corsica. Since its foundation, Tirrenair has established itself as a key player in the local aviation sector, with a unique offer and a constant commitment to its passengers. As the airline continues to develop, it remains true to its primary mission: to offer fast, safe and comfortable flights to travelers within Corsica. With a promising future, Tirrenair is preparing to write the next pages of its history.
