White Airways
White Airways S.A. (also known as White) is a Portuguese charter airline headquartered in Porto Salvo, Oeiras. It mainly operates charter flights from Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport on behalf of tour operators as well as on lease on behalf of other airlines. History The airline was founded in 2000, originally as Yes - Linhas Aéreas Charter under a joint venture with TAP Air Portugal (75%) and Abreu Group (25%). It commenced operations in June 2000 with a leased Lockheed L-1011-500. In late 2006, the airline was acquired by the Omni Aviation and rebranded as White Airways and focused on carrying out ACMI operations on behalf of other airlines. In May 2016, White Airways phased out their last Airbus A310-300 as one of the last European operators of the type. In October 2022, TAP Air Portugal announced it would end its wetlease contract with White Airways citing insufficient dispatch reliability. This was later disputed by White Airways, as the maintenance was performed by Portugália, which is a subsidiary of TAP itself.
