Hello! We are Volotea, the airline of the small and mid-sized cities in Europe.
Since our inception in 2012, we have been amongst the fastest-growing low-cost airlines in Europe. We are enthusiastic enablers of direct travel for Europeans who don’t live in big hubs. We are changing air travel from small and mid-sized cities in Europe, many previously unconnected or underserviced. We aim to connect the people in these cities with their passion for travel, in an enjoyable and increasingly sustainable way.
After over a decade in the skies, we have now flown close to 70 million passengers. Today, we serve over 100 destinations in 18 countries, actively consolidating our position among the top European airlines in the industry.
In recent years, we have raised our travel capacity more than most competitors, increasing our number of aircraft, routes, destinations, employees, and markets. Throughout this journey, our team continues to excel and grow stronger as our services gain recognition amongst an expanding European audience. We are a young, dynamic, and international team that enjoys working together to grow our company during this exciting time in the airline industry.
Our main markets are France, Italy, Spain, and Greece. We have 21 operational bases: Nantes, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Marseille, Strasbourg, Lille, Lourdes, Lyon, and Brest in France; Venice, Verona, Palermo, Cagliari, Olbia, Florence, Bari, and Naples in Italy; Asturias and Bilbao in Spain; Athens in Greece; and Hamburg in Germany.
