About NextJet

NextJet was a Swedish regional airline that operated flights between 2002 and 2018. The airline was headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. It primarily offered domestic flights from its main hub at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport. NextJet also operated routes for other airlines such as Sverigeflyg and Air Aland.

NextJet was founded in 2002 by Magnus Ivarsson. It started operations with a single Saab 340A in its fleet. Between 2003 and 2010, the airline went through a rapid expansion, adding new routes and more aircraft (BAe ATPs and Saab 340Bs). By 2010, NextJet was the largest regional airline in Sweden, serving over 20 domestic destinations. Unfortunately, in 2012, NextJet started to experience financial difficulties due to competition and economic downturn. The airline suffered for 3 years but attempted to improve its service by introducing the Embraer CRJ200 into its fleet.

In 2017, NextJet lost its operating licence due to financial concerns. It received a temporary licence after financial restructuring later that year but ultimately suspended operations in 2018 and filed for bankruptcy following a suspected sabotage incident. Next officially ceased operations in October 2018 and sold all of its assets.

This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.
