Romanian carrier Animawings operating leisure flights to Egypt, Greece, Spain and Turkey with two A320s

Animawings (IATA code A2) is a Romanian carrier which was founded in 2020 by Memento Group. Aegean Airlines, which originally had a 25% stake in the airline, has now increased this to 51%. The airline currently has two A320s in its fleet (YR-AGA and YR-AGB), both of which are former Aegean Airlines aircraft and both around 15 years old.

While a number of routes can be booked on the airline’s website, it primarily operates charter flights organised by tour groups. A closer look at what the airline’s two aircraft did last week (19-25 September), reveals a busy schedule of leisure flights from various airports in Romania to destinations in Egypt, Greece, Italy, Spain and Turkey.
