About CSA Czech Airlines
Czech Airlines (abbreviation: CSA, Czech: Ceské Aerolinie, a.s.) was the flag carrier of the Czech Republic. Its head office was located in the Vokovice area of Prague's 6th district and its hub was Václav Havel Airport Prague.CSA was the fifth oldest airline in the world, after Dutch KLM (1919), Colombian Avianca (1919), Australian Qantas (1920), and Soviet/Russian Aeroflot (1923). It was the first airline in the world to fly regular jet-only routes (between Prague and Moscow).[6] The airline ran a frequent flyer programme called "OK Plus" about the airline's International Air Transport Association designation, as well as the term of approval; OK also featured prominently in its previous livery, and was the prefix of Czech aircraft registrations. It was a member of the SkyTeam alliance.
When, in 2018, 97.74% of Czech Airlines was bought by the privately owned[7] Smartwings, CSA became a part of the Smartwings Group. The remaining 2.26% of CSA was owned by insurance company Ceská Pojištovna.[8] CSA filed for bankruptcy in March 2021 and went through an extensive business restructuring, exiting in June 2022.[9][10] As of 2022, CSA was under a new ownership structure with a new parent company called Prague City Air s.r.o. owning 70% of the company, with Smartwings retaining the remaining 30%.
Czech Airlines ended flight operations on 26 October 2024, handing them over to Smartwings while being repurposed into a holding company. The last flight of Czech Airlines was from Charles de Gaulle Airport to Václav Havel Airport Prague, operated by an Airbus A320-214 registered OK-IOO.[11] The CSA brand will continue to exist, operating through the Smartwings AOC.
