Product Details & Size Guide
Wear a distinctive chapter of Albanian aviation history with this Tafa Air Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt. Scheduled flights started on 18 December 2009, linking Tirana and Pristina with Athens and serving a diaspora-oriented travel market. Supported by Albanian and Kosovan shareholders, the airline relied on one leased aircraft before its lease ended in early 2010, forcing operations to stop. The announced restart was a plan rather than a confirmed return. A considered piece for aviation enthusiasts and collectors of brief airline histories.
Tafa Air was a short-lived low-cost airline based in Tirana, Albania, created for Albanians living abroad, mostly in Germany. Founded by Albanian businessman Taf Tafa and supported by Albanian and Kosovan shareholders, the airline began scheduled services on 18 December 2009. Its flights operated from Tirana International Airport and Pristina International Airport to Athens International Airport. Tafa Air used a single leased Boeing 737-300. In early February 2010, Lithuanian airline flyLAL Charters ended the lease contract that supplied the aircraft, forcing Tafa Air to suspend operations. Tafa announced plans to restart services in late March or early April 2010, but the airline later dissolved. Its brief history links Albanian and Kosovan investment, diaspora-oriented travel, and scheduled routes connecting Tirana and Pristina with Athens. The available account records the planned restart but does not report that services resumed.
