Hex'Air was a French regional airline based at Le Puy – Loudes Airport[1] in Le Puy-en-Velay.[2]

History

The airline was established on 30 March 1991, was owned by Financiere Hex'Air (80%) and had eight employees as of March 2007.[1] During 2006 the airline added an Embraer ERJ 145 (F-HBPE) to its fleet. Both Embraer aircraft were used for charter flights and were regularly flown on behalf of other European regional airlines needing additional capacity [3] Hex'Air suspended one of its two scheduled routes, from Castres via Rodez to Lyon, indefinitely on 24 January 2014.[4]
