History

UTair's former logo

In February 1967, the Aeroflot Tyumen Directorate was set up to meet the transport requirements of the fast-growing oil and gas industry undergoing development in western Siberia.[5] In the wake of the break-up of the Aeroflot organization, Tyumenaviatrans Aviation (TAT) was formed in 1991 to replace the Aeroflot Tyumen Directorate.[6] TAT adopted the name of UTair in 2002.[6] The airline is owned by Khanty Mansiysk District administration (23%), Surgut City administration (19%), Russian shareholders and companies (33%), the Russian Federation (2%), and private foreign investors (20%).

In October 2010, Utair announced plans to replace its Tupolev Tu-134 fleet with the Sukhoi Superjet 100.[7] In December, UTair officially placed an order for 24 of the jets to enter service in 2013.[8] Also in 2010, the airline named a Tu-154 aircraft after Boris Evdokimovich Sherbina, a Tyumenfigure.[9]

In November 2014, Utair faced financial difficulties and was unable to make a bond payment.[10] In April 2015, Utair announced a fleet reduction of over 50 aircraft due to financial difficulty.[11] It also cancelled its order for 24 Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft.[12] A few weeks later, its regional airline subsidiary UTair Express ceased operations.[13]

In December 2015, it was announced that Utair sold its leisure subsidiary Azur Air to Turkish tourism company Anex Tourism Group, which had bought UTair-Ukraine a few weeks earlier.[14] On 31 October 2017, Utair announced its rebranding and changing its name from "UTair Aviation" to "Utair".[15]

On 8 April 2022 the US Department of Commerce restricted flights on aircraft manufactured in the US for Aeroflot, Aviastar, Azur Air, Belavia, Rossiya and Utair.[16] On 16 June the US broadened its restrictions on the six airlines after violations of the sanctions regime were detected. The effect of the restrictions is to ground the US-manufactured part of its fleet.[16]
