GB Airways

GB_Airways_logoGB Airways was a UK airline. It operated scheduled services as a British Airways franchise to  destinations in Europe and North Africa. The company ceased operations in 2008 following its purchase by EasyJet.
The airline was established in 1931 as Gibraltar Airways. During World War II, the airline represented Imperial Airways/BOAC and in 1947 began its relationship with the newly created British European Airways (BEA). BEA began flying between London and Gibraltar, connecting with Gibraltar Airways’ flights to Morocco. Although BEA merged with BOAC to form British Airways in 1974, the financial and operational relationship with GibAir continued. In 1985 the airline, known as GB Airways, was headquartered in Gibraltar. In 1989 the company moved its operational HQ to the United Kingdom in order to increase the scope for expansion. The relationship with British Airways was firmly entrenched in 1995 when it became a full British Airways franchise operator. It was announced in 2007 that GB Airways was to be sold to EasyJet. The acquisition was approved in 2008.
