About EGO Airways
Established in July 2019, EGO Airways was an Italian airline, operating regional flights within Italy. The airline operated from its base at Milan Malpensa Airport.
The airline planned to operate with a fleet of Embraer E190/195 aircraft, which had a capacity of around 100 passengers. It's likely that the airline would have only looked to serve short-haul niche markets in the future.
Update: After obtaining its air operator's certificate (AOC) by the Italian CAA, the carrier operated its first commercial flight in December 2020, with a charter flight between Naples and Amsterdam. Since then, EGO Airways had been operating private charter flights. However, in the months after, the carrier hoped to begin regular scheduled operations in the summer season 2021.
