Buta Airways Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt
Product Details & Size Guide
Wear a piece of Buta Airways’ focused aviation history, from its beginnings as the successor to AZALJet to its announced merger into Azerbaijan Airlines in 2023. The airline’s name took effect in 2017, alongside a visual identity inspired by the Simurg bird and the Azerbaijani buta ornament. Its story also spans service to Sofia and route growth to places including Batumi, Ufa, and Odesa. This quarter-zip sweatshirt suits aviation collectors and anyone interested in the evolution of airline names and identities.
Buta Airways was an Azerbaijani low-cost carrier headquartered in Baku, with its primary operational base at Heydar Aliyev International Airport. In December 2015, Azerbaijan Airlines announced plans for an in-house low-cost airline called AZALJet, which launched schedules in September 2016. After several months, AZALJet was replaced by Buta Airways. The new airline was planned to operate two Embraer aircraft in its own livery, with its own staff and an independent tariff policy. Its livery and logo were approved on 2 June 2017. The design drew on the Simurg bird and the Azerbaijani buta ornament; blue signified ties with Azerbaijan Airlines, while bright red referred to Azerbaijan's flag. The name change took effect on 1 September 2017. Buta began service to Sofia on 16 January 2018, and welcomed its eighth Embraer E190 in December that year. In 2019 it added Batumi, Ufa and Odesa, bringing its planned network to 18 destinations across seven countries as of January. The airline resumed Russian links in June 2022 after suspending them following the February invasion of Ukraine. In July 2023, a merger into its parent, Azerbaijan Airlines, was announced for October. Buta Airways was the successor to AZALJet and a wholly owned subsidiary of Azerbaijan Airlines.
